| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in olive-green and purple tones with a double-rule border enclosing the entire design. Denomination cartouches reading '50 Pf.' in white Gothic lettering on purple grounds appear at upper left and upper right, flanking a central header inscription. A central vignette presents a fine line-engraved view of a church with a tall steeple set among trees, rendered in detailed letterpress style. Lateral text panels carry the payment obligation clause, while the lower margin contains the account designation 'Konto 3B', the issuing authority 'Hohenfriedeberg – der Magistrat' with a manuscript signature, and a printed serial number. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed in dark purple-black and ochre tones with an ornate scrollwork frame incorporating foliate corner motifs and vertical rule borders. The central vignette occupies nearly the full field and presents a detailed battle scene — the Battle of Hohenfriedeberg of 5 June 1745 — with Prussian cavalry bearing regimental standards advancing over fallen enemy soldiers in a sweeping panoramic composition. Denomination roundels in purple bearing the numeral '50' are placed at upper left and upper right within the decorative surround. A purple panel at the lower margin carries the inscription 'Hohenfriedeberg 5. Juni 1745' in Gothic script flanked by laurel sprigs. |
