Obverse description Green guilloche underprint on cream paper with an ornate interlaced border frame. To the left, a large vignette in letterpress style portrays Saint Florian in Roman military attire, standing atop clouds with a spear and banner, extinguishing a burning building with water — a reference to his martyrdom legend. To the right, the issuing authority title in Gothic script heads the note, followed by a liability text in German and the denomination "Fünfzig 50 Heller" rendered in bold red Gothic numerals and lettering. The edition designation "1. Auflage" appears in red at the upper left, with facsimile signatures of the Vizebürgermeister and Bürgermeister at the lower right.

The central vignette presents a panoramic townscape of Sankt Florian am Inn as seen from the River Inn, with a church steeple and village buildings rendered in fine letterpress engraving; a paddle steamer navigates the foreground river. The date "1920" is inscribed at the top centre, decorative denomination numerals "50" appear in the upper corners in Gothic style, and a ribbon cartouche at the base bears the place name.
