| Obverse description | The obverse is dominated by a central vignette of the heraldic coat of arms of Weimar — a golden shield bearing a black lion with red hearts, surmounted by a crested tournament helmet with elaborate acanthus mantling, set against a pale blue ground. The denomination '50' appears in octagonal cartouches at lower left and upper right, while a text panel at upper left bears a dedicatory inscription. The note is dated 'WEIMAR DEZEMBER 1921' below the central vignette, with the artist's signature 'K. Lindegreen' at lower left and an authorising facsimile signature at lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-colour landscape vignette of Goethes Gartenhaus (Goethe's Garden House) in Weimar, rendered in a painterly style by K. Lindegreen (signed and dated 1921 at lower left of the vignette); the composition shows the small timber-framed house amid dense summer foliage, with a white latticed garden pavilion and gate in the foreground. The note title 'WEIMAR' runs along the top in bold lettering within a chevron-patterned border, with denomination numerals '50' in octagonal cartouches at upper left and upper right. The caption 'GOETHES GARTENHAUS' is inscribed in a rectangular panel below the central vignette, and the printer's imprint appears at lower right. |
