| Obverse description | Printed in black and violet on a fine guilloche underprint, the obverse carries a scenic vignette at left presenting the silhouette of Osterburg castle tower rising above trees and rooftops against a clouded sky. To the right, the denomination '50 Pfennig' is set in bold blackletter type, below which the issuing legend 'Gutschein der Stadt Weida' and a redemption clause appear, with a facsimile signature above the title 'Der Bürgermeister'. The series letter 'H' is placed at upper right, and the four border margins bear a humorous aphoristic inscription identifying three landmarks of Weida. |

The numeral '50' and the word 'Pfennig' in large blackletter type flank the arms on the left and right, while the heading 'Gutschein der Stadt Weida' runs across the top. A two-line notice regarding the public announcement of the note's expiry date is inscribed along the lower margin. |
