Obverse description The denomination FÜNFZIG PFENNIG is set in bold Gothic letterpress across the top, with a hatched orange-red geometric underprint filling the upper corners. At centre, a large semicircular woodcut vignette presents a wooded landscape with a tall tree and a winding path, its inner border framing a curved scriptural inscription in German Kurrent script. Below the vignette, a two-line validity notice and the issuing authority appear in block capitals, accompanied by a facsimile signature.
