| Obverse description | Printed in dark green letterpress on plain paper, the obverse is organised around two large numeral '50' cartouches in ornate diamond-shaped guilloche frames positioned at the left and right extremities, connected by an interlaced Celtic-style guilloche border running the full perimeter. The central panel carries the municipal authority text in a typographic arrangement, setting out the issuing body, place of issue, and the bearer redemption pledge, dated Zagreb, 1 September 1942, with a reserved space for the mayor's manuscript signature at lower right. The design is entirely geometric and typographic, with no pictorial vignette. |
