| Obverse description | Olive-green and black Notgeld voucher with the town name 'Bad Lauterberg im Harz' in gothic blackletter across the upper banner, beneath which a rhyming Harz motto runs in a secondary band. The central vignette presents the municipal coat of arms — a quartered shield in red and white with a six-pointed star at base, surmounted by a crowned wild man and flanked by scrollwork supporters — set within a decorative border, with stylised fir tree and mountain silhouettes filling the lateral panels. The denomination '50 Pfennig' and the legend 'Gutschein' appear in large gothic lettering in the lower register, accompanied by the issue date 15. Juli 1921, the issuing authority 'Der Magistrat', two manuscript signatures, and a red serial number at lower right. |

| Reverse description | Lilac and black reverse with 'Fünfzig Pfennig' in gothic blackletter across the upper margin. The central vignette presents a colour view of the Kursaal spa building set among tall trees, flanked to the left by a vignette of the Bismarck-Denkmal monument beneath the Latin motto 'INVENIAM VIAM AVT FACIAM', and to the right by a vignette of the Rütscher-Denkmal obelisk with the humorous local saying 'Wasser tut's freilich, nur nicht so eilig!'. The denomination '50 Pfennig' is repeated in large numerals at each lower corner, and a rhyming pledge of acceptance runs across the lower centre panel. |
