| Obverse description | The obverse is enclosed within an ornate blue rococo scroll border with foliate corner pieces. A central oval vignette bears a portrait of a man in a tricorn hat, rendered against an orange ground with fine line engraving. Flanking text panels carry the validity clause at left and the redemption authority at right, with the issuer name and denomination inscribed in red Fraktur script across the upper register. The large denomination legend "Fünfzig Pfennig" occupies the lower half in bold black Gothic lettering over a yellow guilloche underprint, with the manuscript signature "Poppe" appearing beneath the magistrate's authorization text. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a multicolour woodcut-style vignette of the town of Rheinsberg as it appeared in 1730, with two prominent church towers and surrounding townscape set against a lakeside landscape with green foreground. The central scene is framed by a broad dark border carrying repeated denomination numerals "50" at each corner and along the edges, interspersed with yellow acanthus scroll ornaments. A thin blue scalloped outer border encloses the entire composition, and the printer's imprint appears in small capitals along the lower margin beneath the central vignette. |
