| Obverse description | The obverse is enclosed within an ornate letterpress border of scrollwork, floral rosettes, and interlaced arabesques set against a pink wavy-line underprint. The denomination appears in large Gothic script — 'Fünfzig' to the left and 'Heller' to the right — flanking a central dark guilloche medallion bearing the numeral '50' in white. The upper arc carries the issuing authority legend in script lettering, while the lower panel contains a three-line guarantee text and the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister above a printed title, with the printer's imprint 'Emil Prietzel, Steyr' at the very foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved panoramic vignette of the village of Lausa, set within an arched oval frame at centre, showing a bird's-eye view of the settlement with its church tower, surrounding farmsteads, wooded hillsides, and alpine meadows rendered in detailed cross-hatching. Ornamental cartouches at left and right each bear the numeral '50' in bold, surrounded by foliate scroll devices. The legend 'Gutschein der Ortsgemeinde' appears at upper left and 'Lausa bei Losenstein' at upper right, both in decorative Gothic lettering, within a dotted rectangular outer border. |
