| Obverse description | Cream-coloured letterpress-printed notgeld in brown and pink tones, with a guilloche-patterned border running the full perimeter of the note. The left stub bears the denomination '50 Millionen Mark' in Gothic script alongside a vertically printed serial number and the municipal arms of Bad Homburg — a shield bearing two crossed mining picks — at the lower left. The main face carries the heading 'GUTSCHEIN DER STADT BAD HOMBURG V. D. HÖHE' above the large bold denomination 'FÜNFZIG MILLIONEN MARK', with the redemption clause, place, and date of issue centred below, and two numeral panels flanking the facsimile signatures of the Oberbürgermeister and Beigeordneter under the legend 'MAGISTRAT:'; the printer's imprint 'C. Naumann's Druckerei. Frankfurt a/M.' appears at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is unprinted and shows the plain cream paper stock, with the obverse design visible as a full bleed show-through. A handwritten annotation reading '1 Milliard' is inscribed in ink across the upper portion, likely a later collector's or accountant's notation unrelated to the original issue. |
