| Descrizione del dritto | The obverse centres on a colour-printed oval vignette within an elaborate Art Nouveau scrollwork cartouche, presenting a view of Sopron's main square (Fő tér) with the historic Fire Tower rising against a blue sky, flanked by Baroque townhouses. The denomination numeral '50' is set in large bold letterpress at both the left and right margins, while the redemption text and date 'SOPRON, 1918·MÁJ·1.' appear across the upper and lower fields respectively. The facsimile signature of the Lord Mayor (Polgármester), the designer's credit 'ÁGOSTON ERNŐ', and the printer's imprint 'Röttig-Romwalter Nyomda R.T. 1918–22' are printed along the lower margin, with a red serial number at lower left. |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The reverse is centred on a colour-printed oval vignette enclosed within a matching Art Nouveau scrollwork border, showing a peasant woman in traditional folk dress guiding a horse-drawn plough across a green field, with a second figure visible in the background beneath a cloud-filled blue sky. The denomination numeral '50' appears in large letterpress figures at both the left and right flanks of the vignette, with 'FILLÉR' inscribed beneath each numeral. A Hungarian literary quotation runs in bold letterpress across the upper margin. |

Sopron's wartime emergency coinage shortage pushed dozens of Hungarian municipalities into printing their own small-denomination notes in 1918, but few bothered with an in-house designer. That Ágoston Ernő was commissioned here suggests the city council wanted something presentable, not merely functional. Röttig-Romwalter was a well-established local press, not a specialist security printer, and the absence of anti-counterfeiting measures was considered acceptable for a 50 fillér piece — the denomination too low to justify sophisticated forgery.
Polgármester Töpler Kálmán's signature carries an odd historical footnote: he led Sopron through the 1921 plebiscite that kept the city within Hungary rather than ceding it to Austria, making his name unusually prominent in the region's political memory.
