| Reverse description | The reverse, printed in the same rose-pink and dark brown colour scheme, presents a central arched vignette with a detailed engraved townscape view of Freiburg im Breisgau dominated by the soaring Gothic spire of the Freiburger Münster, set against a hatched sky. The denomination '50 PFENNIG' appears in the upper corners, flanked by the founding year '1120' at lower left and the issue year '1920' at lower right, each accompanied by a heraldic city coat of arms shield.
