Obverse description Printed in blue ink as a horizontal double-unit Notgeld sheet comprising two conjoined 25 Pfennig halves, each headed 'Stadt Bremervörde' with the numeral '25' at the upper corners and a central standing figure vignette set within an ornate foliate frame, the denomination 'FÜNF u. ZWANZIG PFENNIG' in bold letterpress below. A large '50' is positioned between the two halves as a combined face-value indicator. Each half bears a text clause, a manuscript signature over a circular embossed magistrate seal reading 'MAGISTRAT DER STADT BREMERVÖRDE', a serial number, and the issue date 'Bremervörde, d. 1. April 1920'.

Reverse description Printed in brown ink as a corresponding double-unit sheet, each half centred by a large circular vignette enclosing a decorative chalice or goblet motif bearing the numeral '25', with the circular legend 'STADT BREMERVÖRDE' arching above and 'FÜNF UND ZWANZIG PFENNIG' along the lower arc. Within the vignette, flanking inscriptions carry the couplet 'Schön ists auf der ganzen Erde / am schönsten doch in Bremervörde.' The background is covered by a fine geometric guilloche pattern with the repeated numeral '25' as an underprint, and a central '50' is placed between the two halves.
