| Obverse description | Blue-grey guilloche underprint with an ornate border frames the central denomination text rendered in large Gothic blackletter script reading 'Fünfzig Milliarden Mark'. A date panel at the lower centre reads 'Magdeburg, den 29. Oktbr. 1923.' followed by 'Der Magistrat:' above two manuscript signatures. A narrow vertical coupon strip at the right carries additional Gothic lettering oriented vertically within a lathe-work oval vignette. |

| Reverse description | Blue-grey guilloche underprint with a repeating circular medallion pattern bearing the Magdeburg city arms and the legend 'STADT MAGDEBURG' fills the entire field. The central vignette displays the elaborately rendered coat of arms of the City of Magdeburg — a fortified gateway with towers surmounted by a female figure — flanked by acanthus scrollwork. The denomination 'Gut für 50 Milliarden Mark' appears in Gothic script in both the upper-left and upper-right panels, with the validity clause 'Gültig für den Geldverkehr in der Stadt Magdeburg' at lower left and 'Die Dauer der Gültigkeit wird bekannt gegeben' at lower right; a serial number in black is printed at the lower centre. |
