Obverse description Printed entirely in red on cream paper stock, the note is framed by a multi-register geometric border composed of chequerboard corner ornaments, triangular dentil bands, and scrolling foliate motifs. A central rectangular cartouche carries the denomination '50 céntimos' in large letterpress numerals, flanked by decorative bracket devices, with the issuer title 'Moneda Comercial de Rioja' set above in bold type and a validation clause with handwritten serial number below. The printer's imprint 'Tip. Diario de Almería' appears at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is left entirely unprinted on the same cream paper stock, a practice consistent with the emergency fractional scrip issued by Spanish municipalities during the Civil War period to address the acute shortage of small-denomination coinage in local circulation.
