Obverse description Printed in green on a Bavarian lozenge-pattern underprint, the obverse carries the issuer title in Gothic blackletter at the top — 'NOTGELD der Gemeinde BAD WÖRISHOFEN' — with the commemorative subtitle 'Hundertjahrfeier Kneipps 1921' below. The central vignette presents a watering can encircled by a floral and berry garland, flanked on either side by the denomination '50 Pfg.' set within diamond-shaped panels. A validity clause in small Gothic text occupies the lower centre, above the bold motto 'Im Wasser ist Wahrheit, Gesundheit u. Klarheit' along the bottom margin, with the designer's name 'J. Dillitzer' inscribed at the lower left.

Reverse description Printed in green on the same Bavarian lozenge underprint, the reverse carries a detailed line-art vignette of a large Jugendstil civic building — likely the Kneipp-Bad sanatorium — set within a landscape of trees and lawns, with the denomination '50 Pfg.' repeated in the upper corners. A ruled panel at the base contains a two-line aphoristic motto in Gothic script, with the designer's signature 'J. Dillitzer' at the lower left.
