| Obverse description | Printed in letterpress on a green leaf-pattern underprint, the obverse presents a plain typographic layout centred on a block of Catalan text affirming the municipal guarantee of the note's value under a council resolution dated 6 July 1937. The denomination numeral '50' appears at left alongside the four-bar coat of arms of Catalonia. The austere, text-driven composition is characteristic of wartime Catalan municipal emergency issues. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a central vignette juxtaposing a farmer ploughing a field with two horses at left against an industrial factory with electricity pylons at right, together evoking the mixed agricultural and industrial economy of the region. The denomination in both numerals and words flanks the central imagery. The overall execution is in a simple letterpress style consistent with Civil War-era Catalan emergency currency. |
