| Obverse description | Multicolour Notgeld note framed by a red outer border rule enclosing teal corner panels each bearing the numeral '50' in black, with a central yellow guilloche underprint over which a curved Fraktur banner reads 'Notgeld der Stadt Bad Kösen'. The central vignette presents the municipal coat of arms of Bad Kösen — a shield divided into blue and green fields with a stone tower gateway — set within ornate dark-red foliate scrollwork, below which the facsimile signatures of Der Magistrat and Die Stadtverordneten appear alongside the issue date 'Bad Kösen, den 1. Juni 1921'. The lower panel carries 'Stadtgemeinde Bad Kösen' in Fraktur with validity text distributed across the lower left and right cartouches. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a finely executed letterpress panoramic vignette of Bad Kösen, rendered in dark ink on a pale ground, with the townscape nestled among wooded hillsides, a church spire rising at centre and castle ruins crowning the ridge at upper left. Teal corner panels inscribed '50 Pfennig' anchor the lower margin, flanking a central red-and-yellow striped label bearing 'Stadtgemeinde Bad Kösen' in Fraktur script. The entire composition is enclosed within a red border rule consistent with the obverse. |
