| Obverse description | At center, the numeral '5' is displayed within a diamond-shaped frame oriented on its point, encircled by a wreath of four stylized oak leaves and acorns at the cardinal points of the diamond. The circular legend 'DEUTSCHES REICH' arcs across the upper field and 'RENTENPFENNIG' across the lower field, separated by small rosette ornaments at each side. The design is bold and geometric, reflecting the modernist aesthetic of the Weimar Republic era. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a symmetrical arrangement of wheat ears rising from a common base to form a pyramidal or sheaf-like composition, evoking agricultural imagery tied to the Rentenmark's backing by land and agricultural assets. The mint mark appears at the apex of the design in the upper field, while the date is inscribed in the exergue below the wheat arrangement. The overall design is clean and emblematic, consistent with the economic stabilization symbolism of the 1923 currency reform. |
