| Obverse description | The obverse is divided into three panels beneath a header cartouche bearing the title inscription in Gothic script. The central vignette presents an oval portrait of a German Shepherd dog wearing a Red Cross medallion, rendered in detailed letterpress. Flanking silhouette panels show, at left, a seated figure being attended by a dog, and at right, a war-blinded veteran being guided by a guide dog; two text blocks at lower left and right carry the authorization and redemption terms, with the place and date 'Oldenburg i/O 1921' centered below the central oval. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a large central vignette, framed by green laurel-branch borders and flanked by ornate acanthus-scroll panels in ochre and red, showing a silhouetted scene of a war veteran on crutches bending toward his guide dog against a soft sepia tree-lined background. Denomination numerals '50' appear in bold red at upper left and right within the scroll panels, with 'Fünfzig' in red Gothic lettering at the upper corners and 'Pfennig' at the lower corners. A caption cartouche at the base of the central vignette carries the motto in spaced lettering. |
