Obverse description Printed in red, black, and grey on cream paper, the obverse is arranged in three horizontal registers: the upper panel carries a four-line German verse in bold red letterpress within a decorative banner; the central black band bears the denomination numeral '50' in large grey figures at left and right, flanking the city coat of arms — a crowned lion above a crenellated wall — set within an ornate cartouche at centre. The lower cream panel contains the issuer inscription, redemption clause, date of 31 December 1921, and the facsimile signature of the Oberbürgermeister, with the printer's imprint along the bottom margin.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in red-orange, black, and green on cream paper, with flanking side panels carrying a geometric diamond lattice underprint with star rosettes on a yellow-orange ground. The central vignette presents a polychrome scene of a traditional Thuringian half-timbered farmhouse in the Weckersdorf district, with two figures in period dress on a path before the structure, set against a wooded hillside with stylised clouds above. The denomination '50 PF' appears in bold black numerals to either side of the vignette, with the place name 'Zeulenroda-Weckersdorf' above and a two-line poetic inscription in German below.
