| Obverse description | The obverse carries the text of the voucher issue in period letterpress typography, centered across the note face. The denomination is stated in words as 'Fünfzig Pfennig' alongside the issuing authority and place of issue, Hannover, with the date of 1 June 1919. The layout is characteristic of wartime and post-war German Notgeld, with plain but orderly typographic arrangement and no pictorial vignette. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents the redemption conditions in a formal block of German text, flanked on both sides by the numeral '50' repeated in the corners to indicate the denomination. The central text specifies that the Handelskammer zu Hannover will redeem the voucher for 50 Pfennig, and includes a clause stating the voucher becomes invalid if not redeemed within three months of public notice. A serial number appears on the note in keeping with standard Notgeld practice. |
