Reverse description Brown and ochre intaglio print with a dense guilloche underprint of stylised floral and geometric vignettes arranged in a grid pattern across the entire field. The large numeral '50' dominates the centre, set above the word 'KUNA' in bold type, with 'NEZAVISNA DRŽAVA HRVATSKA' in a decorative panel at the top; denominator numerals '50' repeat in each corner and along all four borders in a continuous letterpress legend. At lower centre the printer's imprint 'Leipzig – GIESECKE & DEVRIENT – Berlin' is present. A separate geometric rosette device bearing the numeral '50' appears to the left of the main printed area.
