| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in brown on cream paper within a ruled border. The central vignette presents a landscape view of the Hotel Almtalhof set against a backdrop of forested mountains, rendered in fine line engraving. Flanking the central scene are two full-length figures in traditional Austrian rural attire — a farmhand on the left and a woodsman on the right — while the denomination "Fünfzig 50 Heller" appears in Gothic script across the top and the locality name "Grünau" runs along the lower margin in ornate lettering; the artist's initials "B.K." appear at lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in pink-red on light paper within a double-ruled rectangular frame, with large numerals "50" in pale underprint at left and right. The text is set entirely in Gothic blackletter script and consists of a formal declaration by the commune, stating the legal basis, the total issue amount of K 50,000 authorised by the municipal committee resolution of 28 February 1920, the redemption deadline of 30 November 1920, and a counterfeiting warning. The Bürgermeister's printed signature, Franz Huemer, appears at the foot of the text. |
