| Obverse description | Octagonal zinc notgeld token with a plain beaded border running along all eight sides. Within the border, a circular inner ring of beads frames the central field, in which the large numeral '5' is prominently raised. The legend 'WILH. HABERMEIER' arcs across the upper portion of the field between the two bead rings, while 'CRAILSHEIM' arcs along the lower portion, flanked by small star ornaments. The design is utilitarian and unadorned, typical of World War I-era German emergency small change tokens. |

| Reverse description | Octagonal reverse with a beaded border along all eight sides mirroring the obverse. An inner rope-twist circular border encloses the central field, within which the large numeral '5' is prominently raised. The legend 'KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE' (small change substitute token) runs in a continuous arc around the upper and lateral portions of the field between the beaded and rope borders. Three five-pointed stars are evenly spaced along the lower arc of the inner border, serving as decorative separators. The overall design is characteristic of the austere, functional style of German Kriegsgeld (war emergency coinage) of 1916–1918. |
