Obverse description Central vignette presents a Gothic crypt interior with pointed arches and slender stone columns rendered in a detailed lithographic style. Two oval guilloche cartouches bearing the denomination '50 Pfg.' flank the crypt on either side, with the town arms of Stadtilm — a blue shield with a gate tower — positioned at the bottom centre. The heading 'Notgeld der Stadt Stadtilm' arches across the top, while a scroll at the foot carries the validity and date inscriptions alongside a manuscript signature of the Stadtrat.

Reverse description A colour lithographic vignette occupies the centre of the note, illustrating a medieval stone defensive tower and adjoining town wall amid leafy trees, with a pathway leading through an arch at its base. Bold numerals '50' appear in the upper-left corner and 'PF.' in the upper-right, set against decorative guilloche side panels in a diamond lattice pattern on both lateral borders. The town name 'Stadtilm' is lettered in the lower left, with the caption 'Befestigungsturm der Stadtmauer' in the lower right, and the printer's imprint runs along the very bottom margin.
