Obverse description Printed on cream-yellow paper in dark brown ink, the obverse is framed by a bold arched border enclosing a central vignette of a Romanesque stone gateway with a heavy wooden door set within a rusticated brick arch, flanked by low walls and shrubbery. Above the arch, a six-line verse in Low German dialect is inscribed in letterpress. The denomination '50 PFENNIG 50' is set in large stylised numerals across the upper arch, while the lower margin carries the validity notice 'Gültig für den Geldverkehr innerhalb der Gemeinde bis zum 31. Mai 1922.' and the issuing authority 'Der Rat von Neukloster' with a manuscript signature beneath.

Reverse description The reverse, printed in dark brown over an orange-tan underprint on cream paper, presents a bold woodcut-style vignette of the Neukloster monastery church set within an arched frame, the steepled Gothic edifice rendered in vigorous hatched lines against a stylised sky with radiating lines at the apex of the arch. The denomination '50 PFENNIG 50' again appears in large stylised numerals along the upper arch. At the lower margin, two lines of bold block lettering read 'REUTERGELD' and 'NEUKLOSTER', identifying this note as a Notgeld issue of the town.
