Obverse description The face is overlaid with a red and yellow guilloche underprint across the full field, with the large denomination numeral '50' in red at each lateral margin flanking a central polychrome vignette of the Neuwied municipal coat of arms — a crowned heraldic shield bearing diagonal red and yellow bands charged with a black eagle. To the left, a validity clause in German Gothic script stipulates that the note expires one month after official notice in the Kreisblatt; to the right, the place-date 'Neuwied, 20. Okt. 1919' is set above the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister, with a black serial number at the foot.
Obverse lettering Notgeld 50 (Fünfzig) Pfennig Stadt Neuwied / Neuwied, 20. Okt. 1919 / Der Bürgermeister / Dieser Wertschein verliert einen Monat nach Aufhebung im amtl. Kreisblatt seine Gültigkeit.
Reverse description The reverse carries the same red and yellow guilloche underprint, with the denomination '50 Pfennig' in red and yellow at each upper corner and the year '1919' in red at each lower corner. A central rectangular vignette, enclosed within a rounded ruled border and fine guilloche frame, presents a letterpress view of a large neoclassical civic building, identified as a principal edifice of Neuwied. The issuer name 'Stadt Neuwied' appears in bold black Gothic script along the lower margin, with the printer's imprint 'M. DUMONT SCHAUBERG, KÖLN.' in small capitals at the very foot.
