| Obverse description | Printed in brown and ochre on cream paper, the obverse is dominated by a central rectangular frame enclosing the denomination in bold Gothic blackletter script — '50 Millionen Mark' — over a lightly printed eagle underprint. Two ornamental ribbon banners arc across the top and bottom of the vignette, each bearing the issuer's name 'Landesbank der Rheinprovinz' flanked by foliate sprigs. Below the central frame, a three-line payment clause in Fraktur script names Düsseldorf and the date 15 September 1923, followed by a manuscript signature of the General Direktion. To the right, a vertical side panel repeats the denomination in letterpress, with a circular embossed seal of the Rheinprovinz bearing the Prussian eagle, and the series designation 'Reihe 7' printed in red-brown. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a single uniform reddish-brown tone and carries a bold woodcut-style vignette of a large eagle with wings spread wide, rendered in a stark expressionist manner with strong white-reserve line work against the brown ground. The numeral '50' appears in large white figures at the upper left, with 'MILLIONEN' beneath it, while a ribbon scroll at the lower centre bears the abbreviated issuer name 'LANDES BANK D. RHEINPROVINZ'. A vertical side panel at left repeats the denomination text in letterpress. The entire composition is enclosed within a multi-rule rectangular border. |
