| Obverse description | Central allegorical vignette rendered in a two-colour letterpress design of black over an orange-brown underprint, showing a classically draped female figure blowing a long trumpet, flanked on either side by labouring male figures carrying heavy sacks, with an industrial townscape visible on the horizon behind her. The title legend 'GUTSCHEIN-DER STADT BITTERFELD' appears in bold Gothic blackletter type within a ruled panel at the top, while the denomination '50 PF' is set in large numerals at the lower left and right corners. A pale panel at the bottom centre carries the issue date, two manuscript facsimile signatures, a printed serial number in blue, and the validity notice, with the printer's imprint 'C. Schröter, Leipzig' below the outer frame. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries the principal text of the voucher in a straightforward typographic layout, repeating the essential legends of the obverse in a plain letterpress arrangement without an illustrative vignette, consistent with the emergency currency (Notgeld) printing conventions of the early 1920s. |
