| Obverse description | The upper portion of the obverse carries a landscape vignette in brown on a yellow-ochre underprint, illustrating a view of Uetersen with a church tower rising above a canopy of trees, flanked by smaller structures and a fence to the right, all rendered in a fine linear style. The lower text panel bears the denomination inscription and a Low German verse, flanked on each side by the town arms of Uetersen — a crenellated gateway above a crowned shield — set within ruled cartouches. Two manuscript signatures of municipal officials appear below the central text. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a panoramic industrial vignette in brown on a yellow-ochre underprint, showing a broad harbour scene with sailing vessels, a bridge, factory chimneys emitting smoke, and a sprawling townscape receding to the horizon under a striated sky. The denomination numeral "50" and the legend appear in the upper corners and flanking panels within the zig-zag decorative border, with "50 PFENNIG" repeated in each of the four corners. A pale yellow underprint vignette of a running fox is visible at the lower centre. |
