| Obverse description | The left panel carries a vertical column of four heraldic shields — the arms of Düren, Euskirchen, Jülich, and Stolberg — rendered in dark blue letterpress within a decorative guilloche border. The right field presents a fine ochre-toned underprint of interlocking rosette and text patterns, over which the large denomination '50000 Mark' is set in bold Gothic typeface at the top, followed by a block of German Gothic script stating the Reichsschatzanweisungen guarantee, the accepting authorities, and the date 'Düren, Euskirchen, Jülich, Stolberg-Eschweiler, 15. Febr. 1923'. The series designation and a red serial number appear at upper centre, with manuscript signatures of the Landräte, Kreisausschüsse members, Vereinigung der Industriellen von Düren u. Umgegend e.V., and Handelskammer Stolberg below. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed throughout in dark blue-black on plain paper and is organised around an elaborate guilloche composition: five large concentric rosette vignettes of varying sizes are arranged in a horizontal band across the centre, with the bold numeral '50000' set in white relief within the central rosette cluster. The entire field is overlaid with a dense typographic underprint of repeating place-name text — 'Düren-Euskirchen', 'Jülich-Stolberg', 'Eschweiler' — forming horizontal bands across the surface, while a fine lace-pattern guilloche border in the same ink frames the note on all four sides. |
