Obverse description Printed in blue on cream paper, the obverse carries a header panel inscribed 'Gemeinde Stiftung bei Leonfelden.' above a central arched vignette of a rural ploughing scene with two horses, a ploughman, and a standing figure in a field. Flanking the arch are two narrow vertical panels, each enclosing an allegorical figure with agricultural implements, while the denomination '50' appears in solid blue squares at the lower left and lower right corners. The validity legend 'GÜLTIG BIS 31. DEZEMBER 1920.' is printed in a ruled panel along the lower margin, and the denomination 'Fünfzig 50 Heller' is set in bold Gothic script across the upper portion of the arch.

Reverse description The reverse, printed in blue on cream paper, is framed by an ornamental border composed of stylised wheat sheaves and floral rosette corner blocks. A cartouche at the top centre bears the word 'Gutschein' in decorative script. The central text block, in Fraktur script, states the municipality's liability undertaking dated 4 July 1920 and the redemption guarantee until 31 December 1920, followed by three manuscript signatures with their printed role designations. Two oval medallions on the left and right margins contain a beehive vignette and a decorative finial respectively. A lower cartouche carries a four-line commemorative verse in Gothic script.
