| Obverse description | Brown on light underprint. The Albanian State coat of arms — a double-headed eagle within an oval guilloche frame bearing the date 24 MAJ 1944 — appears at left, while an intaglio vignette at right presents a bust portrait of a soldier wearing a cap and holding a rifle, set within an oval border. The large numeral "50" is printed centrally in bold letterpress, above the denomination legend "PESËDHJETË LEKË", with the serial number in red and the date 1947 at the lower centre. |

| Reverse description | Brown on light guilloche underprint. The centre of the note is occupied by a large cloud-shaped cartouche bearing the denomination in bold letterpress: "PESËDHJETË LEKË", set against a fine engine-turned background of interlocking lines. The numeral "50" appears in large format below the cartouche, and the denomination digit "50" is repeated in each corner. A continuous ornate border of scrollwork and foliate motifs frames the entire design. |
