| Obverse description | Central vignette executed in a bold Art Nouveau-influenced letterpress style, set within a ruled rectangular frame: a haloed patriarchal figure stands amidst tall trees against a star-scattered night sky above a reflective body of water. Large yellow numerals '50' flank the vignette at lower left and right, with the denomination word 'PFENNIG' rendered vertically in yellow block lettering on each side. The place name 'OSTSEEBAD ★ ARENDSEE.' appears in bold type above the central frame. At the foot of the note, a validity clause and the issuing authority 'DIE BADEVERWALTUNG:' are printed, followed by manuscript signatures. A Low German verse in Gothic script fills the upper portion of the note above the vignette. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed in a two-colour letterpress scheme of blue-grey and yellow. A central rectangular vignette presents a detailed line-art view of the Arendsee Baltic seaside resort pier and bathing establishment, with the sea horizon, sandy beach, bathers, and a tree-framed foreground. Large numerals '50' in blue-grey appear at upper left and right, each accompanied by the word 'PFENNIG' in bold block type. A curved banner across the lower portion of the vignette reads 'REUTER GELD' in prominent yellow lettering, below which 'OSTSEEBAD ★ ARENDSEE' and 'FÜNFZIG PFENNIG' are inscribed. The designer's name 'EGON TSCHIRCA' is noted in the upper left corner. |
