| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Printed in orange-brown and teal on buff paper, the obverse carries the title "Notgeld" in Gothic script at the top, flanked by the date 1921 and the town name "Bad Schmiedeberg" in large decorative lettering. At centre, an oval vignette within a beaded cartouche presents a stylised town gate with multiple towers against a teal ground, framed by radiating guilloche-like fan patterns in green; denomination panels reading "50" appear in orange at left and right within ornate geometric frames. Below the central vignette, a redemption clause in German script states that the voucher is redeemable by the Stadtkasse, followed by a serial number and two manuscript signatures above the issuing authority line "DER MAGISTRAT". |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in dark grey-black on cream paper in a bold silhouette style, occupying nearly the full field with a Scherenschnitt-inspired vignette of five figures in period costume gathered beneath a draped garland, two of whom exchange raised goblets at centre. The denomination "50" appears at lower left and "Pf" at lower right in large Gothic numerals, with a three-line verse inscription in early-modern German Gothic script below the figural scene. The printer's credit "LEHMANN-WITTENBERG" is printed in small capitals at the lower left margin. |

| Anmerkungen |
Bad Schmiedeberg is a small spa town in Saxony-Anhalt, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1921, it issued its own emergency paper currency — Notgeld — to compensate for the chronic shortage of small-denomination coinage that had plagued the country since the war. J. Adolf Schwarz of Lindenberg im Allgäu was a prolific Notgeld printer working out of the Bavarian Allgäu region, supplying municipal issues to clients far beyond his local area.
The 1921 date places this firmly in the second, collectible-oriented wave of Notgeld production, when towns increasingly issued decorative series aimed at philatelic collectors rather than genuine exchange need.
