| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in green and yellow on white paper, with an overall underprint of interlocking foliate scrollwork and large numeral '50' denominators at left and right. The central text, rendered in decorative Fraktur script, announces the issuance of the Aushilfsschein for use at the 'Altdeutschen Keller' in Wyk auf Föhr, attributed to Hans Westerwald. At the foot, a validity clause in smaller script states that the note loses its validity four weeks after announcement in the Wyker Zeitungen. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in black with yellow and green accents, with a bold central vignette of a large numeral '50' against a black ground, within which a monkey crouches. Flanking the denomination are two rotund, nude figural vignettes rendered in a caricature style, each entwined with hop or vine foliage, evoking the tavern theme of the issuer. Humorous verses in Fraktur script appear at the top and bottom of the field. |
