| Obverse description | Pink and teal Notgeld note with the municipal coat of arms of Grünberg centrally placed, rendered in teal and white, showing a fortified wall with two towers above a portcullis. To the left, a vignette of an overflowing fruit and grape display with a wine glass, referencing the town's viticulture; to the right, a vignette of a ram's head with weaving implements, alluding to the local wool trade. The denomination '50' appears in large Gothic numerals at both upper corners, flanking the legend 'Grünberg/Schl.' in Gothic script along the top band. |

| Reverse description | Dark-toned note with a central vignette of the Grünberg Catholic church (Kath. Kirche) set against a deep teal nocturnal sky with white stars, surrounded by townhouse buildings in fine linear engraving. Flanking the central scene are full-length figural vignettes: to the left, a female figure in classical drapery carrying a basket on her back, and to the right, a male worker bearing a large book or board. Two shield-shaped denomination cartouches bearing '50' are placed at the upper inner corners of each flanking panel. |
