| Obverse description | Letterpress in black on white paper, centred on the municipal coat of arms of Solsona surmounted by the four-bar Catalan emblem rendered in colour, flanked by vignettes of ears of wheat to the left and coal workers to the right — motifs referencing the agricultural and artisan character of the Solsona region. Denomination and issuing authority appear in plain text blocks above and below the central composition, in the utilitarian typographic style common to Spanish Civil War emergency issues. The overall layout is spare and functional, without ornamental borders or guilloche work. |

| Reverse description | Letterpress in black on white paper, centred on a vignette of the main entrance to the city of Solsona as seen from the road toward Manresa, with the bell tower of the Cathedral rising in the background; a single ear of wheat appears on each side of the central view. A plain text block below the vignette carries the denomination in Catalan together with the mandatory circulation notice and the reimbursement deadline. The reverse continues the same unadorned typographic treatment as the obverse, consistent with the emergency character of the issue. |
