Obverse description The obverse is printed in dark blue-green on a light teal ground, framed by a foliate letterpress border. At upper left, the numeral '50' appears in bold black within a dark cartouche, accompanied by the text 'Platzanweisung über Pfennige' in ornate blackletter script across the upper and central field. A finely engraved vignette at lower left renders the twin-towered church of Kirchberg in Sachsen within a decorative scrollwork surround. The issuing authority 'Die Stadtgirokasse' is inscribed below the date 'den 1. Juli 1921', followed by two facsimile signatures, with a typeset serial number at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is executed in dark navy on a teal ground, with a broad central oval vignette illustrating a weaver at a large hand loom in an interior workshop setting, rendered in fine intaglio-style engraving. Flanking the lower margin, the denomination '50 Pfg' appears in bold blackletter numerals within dark rectangular panels at each corner. Between these panels, a two-line verse in blackletter script is set against the teal ground, referencing the weaver's craft, with a decorative foliate border enclosing the entire composition.
