| Obverse description | Yellow-ochre ground with a dashed border frame enclosing the central text block in Gothic Kurrent script. The denomination numeral '50' appears in large circular vignettes at upper left and right, each wreathed in oak-leaf garlands. The lower left bears the municipal arms of Konstadt — a tower over a crescent on a shield — and the lower right carries the Prussian eagle coat of arms; both shields are flanked by oak-leaf sprays. The date of issue 'Konstadt o/S. d. 20. März 1921' and a manuscript facsimile signature of the Magistrat appear in the lower centre. |

| Reverse description | Yellow-ochre ground with a teal-tinted outer border and fine dashed inner frame. To the left, a large vignette shows a mounted herald in Renaissance costume astride a white horse, blowing a long trumpet with a pennant bearing '1921'. At centre, a scroll cartouche labels the ruins of the former Konstadt castle — 'Ehem. Burg Konstadt o/S 1461' — set against a panoramic silhouette of the town with a radiating sunrise. To the upper right, the denomination numeral '50' is overprinted in blue atop a Prussian eagle, and a serial number appears at lower right. The denomination in Gothic lettering 'Fünfzig Pfennig' runs across the top, with the issuer scroll 'Stadt Konstadt o/S' at the bottom centre. |
