Obverse description Warm ochre-toned notgeld issued on behalf of the Württembergische Landeshauptstadt Stuttgart, with a central vignette of the Stuttgart coat of arms — a rearing black horse on a gold shield — set within an ornate cartouche with scrollwork flourishes. Denomination numerals '50' appear in large open figures to either side of the central vignette, with a faint underprint of historical figural scenes across the field; below, the value legend 'Fünfzig Pfennig' is rendered in bold blackletter script above the payment clause, issue date 'Stuttgart den 21. April 1921', the title 'Oberbürgermeister', and a manuscript signature, with series letter 'D' at lower right and a small purple diamond-shaped city stamp at lower left.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in warm sepia tones and carries a large topographic vignette of the Wilhelmsbrücke (Wilhelms Bridge) in Cannstatt, rendered in a detailed illustrative style with the arched stone bridge spanning a river in the foreground and the tower of the Stadt­kirche Bad Cannstatt rising among the townscape beyond. The denomination '50 Pfennig' appears in bold white numerals and lettering against a dark ground in the lower right corner, while the place name 'Stuttgart' in gothic script and the subtitle 'Cannstatt · Wilhelmsbrücke' are inscribed in the upper left.
