| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in red, blue, and black on cream paper with an ornate Art Nouveau-style border of stylised foliate scrollwork. A central oval vignette at the top presents a medieval city gate with a lamb passant, set against a horizontally striped blue-and-white shield representing the arms of Calbe. The denomination "50 PF." appears in decorative cartouches at upper left and upper right, with the town name "Calbe a/S. Saale!" in bold red letterpress script at centre, followed by the issue date "den 23. April 1917", the validity clause "Nur gültig am Tage der Ausgabe", magistrate authority text "Der Magistrat:", multiple manuscript signatures, and a six-digit serial number on a scroll ribbon; a commemorative inscription in Gothic script at the foot references the first documentary mention of Calbe by Emperor Otto in the year 937. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in a rich polychrome palette of black, gold, red, green, and teal, with a bold decorative border of interlaced golden scrollwork on a black ground, accented by red geometric corner motifs. The central vignette, rendered in a woodcut-inspired illustrative style, shows a craftsman's workshop scene in which a sculptor presents a finished suit of armour to a group of robed and hatted townsmen; a wooden stepladder leans against the left wall beneath a Gothic window. Below the vignette, a two-line rhyming caption in black-letter script alludes to the craft of the sculptor, and the printer's imprint "Rats-Druckerei R. Dulce, Künstlerdruck, Glauchau." appears along the lower margin; a small boxed series number "3" is printed at the upper right. |

Calbe an der Saale is a small industrial town in Saxony-Anhalt, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1917, it was forced into issuing its own emergency paper — Kriegsgeld — as the imperial government hoarded metal coinage for war production. The Rats-Druckerei R. Dulce in Glauchau handled a substantial volume of municipal Notgeld commissions during this period, operating under their "Künstlerdruck" imprint to signal quality lithographic work rather than purely utilitarian output.
The DeNG reference system catalogs this as one of six known varieties in the 0213.4 series for Calbe, suggesting the city issued multiple design or date iterations across the war years.
