| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black on a pale rose-tinted paper with an intricate engraved border of scrollwork and corner ornaments, each corner bearing the numeral 50 in an oval cartouche. At the top centre, a crowned heraldic lion vignette within an oval medallion flanked by foliate decoration is set above the bank name in letterpress; the denomination FEMTIO (fifty) appears in an oval guilloche panel flanked by calligraphic Kronor inscriptions, with the vertical side panels bearing the word HALLAND. The note carries the overprint PROFTRYCK (proof impression) and the name JACOB BAGGE, with the place and date Halmstad, 1888 printed in script below the denomination. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a mirror-image (offset show-through) impression of the obverse design in blue-grey ink, typical of a proof or trial printing where the wet obverse sheet has been pressed against a second surface. The layout reproduces all principal design elements in reverse — the crowned lion vignette at top, the FEMTIO guilloche oval at centre, the HALLAND side panels, and the corner numeral cartouches — rendered in a single blue-grey tone without the rose underprint of the face. |
