| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized industrial panorama characteristic of the Saar mining region, featuring pithead winding gear at right and heavy industrial pipework and machinery at left, flanking the Saarland coat of arms at center — a quartered shield surmounted by a mural crown. The legend SAARLAND curves along the lower portion of the field in bold upright Latin lettering. The design, engraved by Theo Siegle, reflects the region's industrial and mining heritage in a restrained, modernist style. |

| Reverse description | The large numeral '50' dominates the central field in bold, open figures. The circular legend FÜNFZIG FRANKEN curves around the upper portion of the coin, read from left to right, while the date '1954' appears in the lower arc, flanked by two raised dots serving as separators. The design is clean and unadorned, with the denomination and date filling the field in a clear, legible typographic arrangement. |
