| Obverse description | The obverse is dominated by the heraldic coat of arms of Nöschenrode — a shield divided horizontally with alternating red and white bars — surmounted by a red mural crown and framed by elaborate scrolling acanthus ornaments in red and grey. A ribbon cartouche bearing the inscriptions 'Gemeinde Nöschenrode' and the issue date '15. Juni 1921' wraps around the central vignette, while the denomination numeral '50' appears in circular cartouches at each corner. Below the central device, the issuing authority text, place, date, and two manuscript signatures of the Schulze and Schöffe are printed, with the printer's attribution at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed as a silhouette papercut (Scherenschnitt) in the manner of the German folk-art tradition, rendered in dark brown on a plain cream ground. The left side presents a group of wandering figures — a youth raising his arm, a companion carrying flowers, and a child receiving a garland — set against a stylised tree and a small heraldic shield at lower left bearing horizontal bars. To the right, a multi-stanza verse in flowing script script celebrates pilgrimage to the Hailebart and the spirit of the Wandervogel movement, concluding with a reference to the 'Harzer Waldesduft'. The attribution 'Scherenschnitt von Marie Alde' is printed in the lower margin. |
| Reverse lettering | Zum Hailebart wir pilgern gern, wir Wandervogelscharen; frühmorgens schon von nah und fern wir kommen angefahren. Zupfgeigenklang schwirrt durch die Luft; man hört uns schon von weitem. Ein Lied vom Harzer Waldesduft bringt Reigentakt ins Schreiten. Scherenschnitt von Marie Alde. |
