Obverse description Orange and brown letterpress note framed by an architectural pediment supported by pilasters, with female profile busts at each upper corner. Two circular vignettes flank the central panel: the arms of Bougie at left and the arms of Sétif at right, each within a fine guilloche border. The denomination and Arabic-script legend appear at centre, with facsimile signature lines for the President and the Secretary-Treasurer below, series and serial number at foot, and the printer's imprint at lower left.

Reverse description Orange and brown note with an interlaced Celtic-style guilloche border framing the entire field. Two large circular medallions at upper left and right carry the numeral 50, flanking the word CENTIMES and an Arabic-script legend. A central oval vignette presents a landscape with a tree in the foreground and hills beyond, with the town names BOUGIE and SÉTIF printed vertically at either side. A redemption clause in French runs along the lower margin.
