Obverse description The obverse is printed in brown, red, and blue tones on a cream ground, with the issuer's name 'Stadt Perleberg' set in bold blackletter type across the upper field. Octagonal red denomination cartouches bearing '50 Pf' in black appear at both upper corners, each framed by a blue decorative surround. The central vignette shows an open leather purse spilling coins onto a flat surface, set against a panoramic outline view of Perleberg's Gothic church steeple and townscape to the right, accompanied by the motto 'Es war einmal' in blackletter script; the lower border carries the validity clause, serial number, the city arms shield, and a manuscript signature attributed to the Magistrat.

Reverse description The reverse is rendered in sepia tones on a cream ground, dominated by a detailed line-engraved vignette of a domed civic building set amid leafless trees and accessed by an arched bridge over a canal, identified by the inscription 'Perleberger Viehversicherung' at upper left. A header band in blackletter carries a fragment of an archaic Low German text beginning '6 als mit ener falsken tungen wesen beladen', and a bold blackletter legend 'Erblüht' occupies the lower panel.
