| Obverse description | A finely detailed proof portrait bust of Austrian psychiatrist and psychotherapist Alfred Adler faces left at center, rendered against a framed rectangular background panel. The subject is depicted wearing spectacles, a suit and tie, with a distinctive moustache, in a realistic and finely modelled style. The legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH is inscribed vertically along the left field, while the name ALFRED ADLER appears vertically in an inset panel to the right of the portrait. The denomination 50 EURO and the date 2018 are placed in the lower right field. |

| Reverse description | Three allegorical figures are depicted in high relief across the full field of the reverse, evoking themes central to Adler's individual psychology: a woman in profile faces right at left, a child is shown at center upper field gazing downward, and a man faces left at right, all rendered in an ornate Jugendstil-influenced artistic style with richly decorated, swirling hair and patterned garments. The composition references the interconnectedness of family and society as conceived in Adlerian psychology. The field is unlettered, with no legend or inscription, the design filling the entire round flan to the rim. |
