| Obverse description | Pink-toned notgeld note printed in dark blue-grey ink on a salmon-pink paper ground. The central vignette, signed by the artist Wilhelm at lower centre, presents a line-drawn townscape of Frankenmarkt with the parish church tower rising above surrounding rooftops and bare winter trees. Flanking the vignette are two vertical panels each bearing the denomination numeral '50' within a rectangular frame over the word 'HELLER', with the issuing authority inscribed below left as 'DER BÜRGERMEISTER' and below right as 'DER GEMEINDERAT', each accompanied by a manuscript signature. |

| Reverse description | Plain salmon-pink paper reverse with a typeset text block enclosed within a simple ruled border, setting out the legal basis and redemption conditions of the emergency currency issue. The text states that the Marktgemeinde Frankenmarkt issues this notgeld pursuant to a municipal committee resolution of 16 April 1920 and guarantees redemption in legal tender between 1 and 31 May 1921. A bold anti-counterfeiting warning appears below the main text, followed by two printed signature lines for the Vizebürgermeister (Jauk) and the Bürgermeister (Andorfer). |
