The denomination «Fünfzig Milliarden Mark» is set in large ornate Gothic script at centre, below which a block of Gothic-script text states the legal redemption terms, the place and date «Kempten, 2. November 1923», and three manuscript signature lines designated for the Stadtrat, 1. Bürgermeister, and Finanzrat. A serial number appears at upper left.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in dark violet on a fine guilloche underprint, centred on an octagonal frame enclosing a circular vignette of Kempten's civic coat of arms — a tower above the Bavarian lozenge shield — set within dense foliate scrollwork. «KEMPTEN» and «NOTGELD» appear in large interlaced Gothic capitals along the left and right margins respectively, while the denomination «00150 MILLIARDEN 00» runs along the lower border, with the printer's imprint «F.X. VOESSENMAYR» below it.
