| Obverse description | Cream-toned notgeld on a lined underprint, with the denomination numeral '50' in oval cartouches at all four corners. The title 'Gutschein' is set in ornate Gothic blackletter script at the top centre. A central oval vignette in fine line engraving illustrates a farmer guiding a horse-drawn plough across open fields, with a village church spire and rooftops visible in the background under a radiant sky. Decorative vegetal motifs and pillar elements flank the vignette on either side, with validity and issuing authority inscriptions divided between the left and right margins. |

| Reverse description | Cream-toned notgeld on a lined underprint, with the same layout of '50 HELLER' oval cartouches at top and bottom corners and the Gothic 'Gutschein' heading at the top centre. The central oval vignette, executed in detailed line engraving, presents a horse-drawn hay cart being loaded in a field, with the village of Ruprechtshofen — its church tower prominent — visible in the right background. Wayside shrine figures in the local Baroque tradition are illustrated in the left and right margins in place of the vegetal motifs found on the obverse. |
