Obverse description The obverse is printed in green, black, and red on a cream ground, with a decorative oak-leaf and scroll border framing the entire note. At the centre top, the quartered coat of arms of Schleswig-Holstein is displayed, flanked by the large Gothic-script denomination legend 'Fünfzig Pfennig'. A central cartouche in the form of an unrolled scroll carries the issuer inscription in red letterpress. Below, the validity date and place of issue are given in black script, accompanied by the manuscript signature of the Gemeindevorsteher.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in olive-green, red, and black, with Art Nouveau-style vertical panels on each side bearing red lozenge cartouches with the denomination monogram '50 Pf' in white. The central vignette, signed by the artist Holtz, illustrates a crowd scene commemorating 1864, with figures waving black-white-red tricolour flags beneath a large tree, evoking the Schleswig plebiscite era; the caption 'VP EWIG VNGEDEELT 1864' appears above. A bold red panel across the foot carries the issuer name in black capitals.
