Obverse description Yellow underprint on a note with a decorative brown circular border of repeating rosette motifs. The central vignette presents a stylised green dragon curled into a circular form, its body enclosing the issuing authority text; denomination numerals '50' appear in green at upper left and upper right, each accompanied by the word 'Pfennig' in blackletter script below. Within the dragon's coil, the issuing text and date are rendered in Gothic script, beneath which appears a facsimile signature above the title 'Bürgermeister'.

Reverse description The reverse is printed on a plain brown-toned stock and divided into three vertical panels: the left panel carries a line-art vignette of birds in flight over water; the central panel bears a decorative Art Nouveau cartouche with the locality text in blackletter script; the right panel presents a vignette of a large fossil embedded in a limestone quarry face, referencing the region's renowned palaeontological and lithographic limestone deposits. The printer's imprint appears in small blackletter type along the lower margin.
