A red numeral '50' appears at top centre within an oval frame, flanked by the inscription 'Notgeld der Stadt Nörenberg'; below, the denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennig' is set in Gothic typeface above the payment clause referencing the städtische Sparkasse, with a central eagle vignette. The date 'Nörenberg, den 13. Okt. 1921', the magistrate's facsimile signature, and a red serial number are printed at the foot of the note.
