| Obverse description | Printed in green on white paper, the obverse centres on a vignette of a traditional Chinese city gate tower set within a landscaped scene, with a guilloche underprint framing the composition. The numeral '5' appears in each lower corner and in the upper-left corner panel, while Chinese characters for the denomination '伍角' are placed vertically at the right. A small red seal impression appears below the denomination characters at centre-right, and the bank name '冀東銀行' is inscribed in Chinese at upper right alongside a serial number. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in green and displays a central rectangular panel enclosed within an intricate guilloche border. The denomination '50 FEN' is boldly rendered in large Latin numerals and letters at the centre of the panel, flanked to the right by Chinese characters '伍角' repeating the value. The overall design is spare, relying entirely on the geometric lathe-work pattern for visual structure. |
