| Beschrijving voorzijde | The upper portion of the note carries a pale cream field bearing a three-line redemption text in Gothic script, below which three facsimile signatures appear with their respective titles. The lower half is dominated by a dark Art Nouveau underprint of stylised reed and grass motifs flanking a central cartouche in a folded-ribbon form, within which the issuer's name is lettered in decorative upright capitals. The designer's monogram and year 'K.B. 1920' appear in small type at the base of the cartouche. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The upper register presents a panoramic bird's-eye vignette of Schwanenstadt as it appeared in 1627, rendered in fine line-engraving style over a warm ochre ground, with the year '1627' inscribed in the upper right corner. The lower half repeats the same Art Nouveau underprint of interlaced reed foliage flanking the central ribbon cartouche bearing the issuer inscription in decorative capitals, with the monogram 'K.B. 1920' at its foot. Marginal inscriptions at the lower left and right corners note the value and print run details. |

Schwanenstadt is a small market town in Upper Austria, and this 50 Heller note is a product of the postwar Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities between 1919 and 1921 — local emergency currency issued to compensate for the chronic small-denomination coin shortage that followed the collapse of the Habsburg monetary system. The designer is credited only as "K.B.," a monogram that has not been conclusively attributed.
Three signatories — Pfeiffersberg, Strasser, and Eicher — suggesting a full municipal council sign-off rather than a single treasury official, which was more common in smaller Gemeinden trying to establish legitimacy for paper most locals were reluctant to accept.
