Obverse description Printed in red on a pale ground, the obverse is dominated by an elaborate oval guilloche frame enclosing the central text area, with two putti flanking a central cartouche at the top of the vignette and allegorical seated figures at either side of a pastoral scene with livestock in the lower register. The denomination '50' appears in large bold numerals at both left and right margins, with the Cyrillic legend ПЕДЕСЕТ ПЕРПЕРА in heavy letterpress across the centre. Below the denomination text, the issue date Цетиње, 25. јула 1914. is followed by signature lines for the President of the State Financial Control and the Minister of Finance.

Reverse description Printed predominantly in red on an uncoloured ground, the reverse carries a dense letterpress underprint of the repeated text КРАЉЕВИНА ЦРНАГОРА arranged in horizontal lines across the entire surface. At centre, the Montenegrin royal coat of arms — a double-headed eagle bearing a shield — is rendered in intaglio, surmounted by the issuer inscription КРАЉЕВИНА ЦРНАГОРА and the bold denomination ПЕДЕСЕТ ПЕРПЕРА, with the numeral '50' repeated in each corner. A legislative authority note in smaller Cyrillic text appears beneath the arms.
