| Obverse description | Salmon-toned notgeld note with a central vignette of a barefoot cherub-like figure in motion, holding a large wicker basket from which blossoms scatter toward a surprised child at right, rendered in a folk-art woodcut style. The large denomination numeral '50 Pfennig' is set in bold decorative lettering across the lower centre, framed by a floral border. Below the vignette appears a stanza of Low German verse ('De Frühling'), and the issuing authority inscription and two manuscript signatures are printed at the top. |

| Reverse description | Cream-toned reverse with a detailed woodcut-style vignette of a North German townscape, centred on a multi-storey half-timbered building alongside a church with a pointed steeple, flanked by mature trees under an open sky. The denomination '50 Pfennig' arcs across the upper portion in bold stylised lettering. Below the vignette, the word 'REUTERGELD' appears in a salmon-coloured panel, with 'KRAKOW' in large bold capitals forming the lower border. |
