Obverse description The obverse is printed in dark brown on a pink guilloche underprint, with a classical architectural border of paired columns and rope-work at the sides. At the top centre, the municipal coat of arms of Le Tréport — bearing a sailing vessel and the motto SEQ INF ULT PORTUS — is set within a scrolled cartouche flanked by decorative wheat sheaves, beneath a ribbon banner carrying the issuer's title. The denomination value "50" appears in large numerals in each lower corner, while a large pink-rose underprint numeral "50" occupies the centre field behind the serial number and two manuscript signatures above the series letter and serial number at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in dark brown on cream paper with a continuous ornamental border of scrollwork, foliate corner pieces, and a repeating chain motif along the top and bottom edges. The entire central field is occupied by a large oval panel in copperplate script setting out the redemption conditions, with the obverse design showing through as a ghost underprint. A circular cachet of the Chambre de Commerce du Tréport is applied in red ink across the text.
