Octagonal denomination panels bearing '50' and 'Heller' flank the vignette left and right respectively, while the validity inscription 'Gültig bis 31. Dezember 1920' appears at the base above three manuscript signature lines. The right stub panel carries a circular '50' denomination medallion within a wreath at top and the municipal coat of arms of Senftenberg below, with the issuing authority name and date 'am 15. Mai 1920' in Gothic script.
