Obverse description The note is arranged in three vertical panels within an ornate letterpress border. The central panel bears the issuer's title 'Die städtische Sparkasse Neusalz (Oder)' at its head and a heraldic shield vignette with the arms of Neusalz — a black eagle above a sailing vessel on stylized waves — surrounded by foliate ornament in orange and black. The left panel carries the payment obligation in Gothic script with the account designation 'Konto H' in a serrated box at the lower margin, while the right panel bears the denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennig' in Gothic lettering, with the numeral '50' in orange roundels at each upper corner and a serial number box at lower right.

Reverse description The reverse is dominated by a large horizontal vignette in fine line-engraved style set beneath an arched frame, with orange guilloche roundels at each upper corner bearing the numeral '50'. The scene illustrates the elevation of Neusalz to town status by King Frederick the Great on 20 August 1743, with a central uniformed figure surrounded by townspeople in period costume rendered in precise intaglio line work. A captioned legend in Gothic script below the vignette identifies the historical event, and the printer's registration notice appears in the lower margin.
