| Beschrijving voorzijde | Dark brown and grey-green letterpress note with a geometric zigzag border framing the entire face. The issuer's title is set in blackletter script across the upper portion, with the municipal coat of arms — a crenellated tower flanked by two six-pointed stars above stylised waves — centred as the central vignette. Denomination cartouches of '50 Heller' appear in ornate shield-shaped frames to the left and right of the arms, with redemption text and three manuscript signatures of municipal officials across the lower register. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in dark brown and grey-green on an unprinted paper ground, with the same geometric zigzag border used on the obverse. A central rectangular vignette presents a panoramic view of Marbach an der Donau as seen from across the Danube, with the town's rooftops and a hilltop monument rendered in a fine engraved style against a lightly tinted hillside background. The denomination numeral '50' appears in large bold type both above and below the central vignette within the border framework. |

| Opmerkingen |
Marbach an der Donau is a small market town in Lower Austria, and this 50 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities following the collapse of the Habsburg economy. The central government's inability to supply sufficient small change in the early postwar years forced thousands of towns to print their own emergency fractional currency — a chaotic but locally pragmatic solution. Jakob Philipp of Vienna handled a substantial portion of this municipal printing work, supplying notes to dozens of Lower Austrian communities during 1920.
The Jaksc/Pick reference JPR0579II places this within the second issue for Marbach, suggesting the municipality needed to reprint.
