Obverse description The left half of the note is occupied by a finely engraved vignette of a standing allegorical male figure — likely Hercules or a similar heroic personage — draped with a floral garland and holding a staff, set against a rocky background. The right panel carries the issuing authority's name in script at the top, followed by the bold letterpress legend 'GUTSCHEIN ÜBER' and the denomination 'FÜNFZIG HELLER' in large block letters with decorative fill. Below, a text block in Gothic script states the municipality's legal obligation to redeem the voucher in lawful currency, with two facsimile signatures of the Bürgermeister and a deputy official at the foot. The validity date 'Gültig bis 31. März 1921' is inscribed in the lower left of the vignette panel.
