| Obverse description | The obverse carries a central vignette rendered in a bold woodcut or lithographic style, showing a horse-drawn salt wagon heavily laden with sacks passing before a medieval town gate, with a panoramic view of the historic town of Groß Salze in the background. A decorative border frames the composition on all sides, with the denomination numeral '50' at upper right and lower right, and a stylised salt-cellar or mortar motif in each corner. The issuing authority inscription and date run vertically along the left margin, with the town motto 'Am groten Salt Gott immer walt' printed along the lower border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a rural harvest scene executed in a linear illustrative style, with sheaves of grain gathered in a furrowed field and workers visible in the middle ground; industrial chimneys and a long factory building rise along the horizon, referencing the region's salt-extraction industry. A multi-line verse in Gothic script occupies the upper portion of the note above the vignette, while the denomination '50' appears in the upper-right and lower-right corners. A serial number printed in red is overlaid across the lower part of the central vignette, and a further motto in archaic Low German lettering runs along the bottom border. |
