The denomination '50' appears in large numerals at upper left and right corners, with 'Pf' at lower left and right, all in the dark border field. The central text panel carries the value in Gothic blackletter script, issuer details, validity date, place and issue date, two manuscript signatures beneath the inscription 'DER MAGISTRAT', an official circular stamp at lower right, and a printer's imprint 'BUHE' at the base; a red serial number appears vertically at each side margin.

Reverse description Violet-purple guilloche underprint covers the entire field, with the denomination '50' in large bold numerals at upper left and right and 'Pf' below each. The central vignette, set within a dark starburst cartouche flanked by baroque scrollwork cornucopiae bearing roses, presents a detailed townscape view of the Aschersleben Rathaus with its prominent clock tower and flanking buildings rendered in fine letterpress. A ribbon banner below the vignette carries the town name in Gothic script, and the year '1920' is inscribed within the upper arch of the cartouche.
