| Obverse description | Printed in orange and dark blue on white paper, the note carries a geometric guilloche border with denomination numerals '50' in each corner. At centre, the municipal arms of Kyritz — a shield bearing a stylised tower and fleur-de-lis — forms the principal vignette. The denomination is rendered in bold Gothic blackletter script across the upper field, with the issuing authority 'Der Magistrat' and a manuscript signature below, followed by the designation 'Stadtkassenschein' and a four-line verse in Gothic script at the foot. |

| Reverse description | Printed in orange on white paper, the reverse centres on a line-engraved vignette of the Kyritz town hall, a multi-storey Neo-Gothic building with a prominent clock tower. The same geometric guilloche border frames the design, with denomination numerals '50' in each corner. Two text panels flanking the central vignette give redemption and recall instructions, and a black serial number is printed below the building vignette. |
