| Obverse description | Letterpress-printed in dark brown on an ochre-yellow underprint, the face is framed by a decorative border of interlocking geometric ornaments. The bold blackletter numeral '50' anchors both upper corners, flanking the central heading 'Gutschein über Fünfzig Pfennig' in large Gothic script. A mid-field text band declares validity within the Kreis Wanzleben, followed by the issuance date 'Wanzleben, den 9. April 1920', the issuing authority 'Der Kreisausschuß', and three manuscript signatures below. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette presents a detailed line-art view of an industrial mining facility, with a pithead winding tower, tall chimney stack, and ancillary buildings set against a streaked sky. The vignette is flanked on each side by stylised botanical motifs — large wheat sheaves or hop plants rendered in bold woodcut style — while below it a shield bearing crossed hammers, the heraldic emblem of the mining district, is set within a scroll ornament. The lower portion carries a multi-line disclaimer text in Gothic script, with a red serial number at lower centre and the printer's imprint 'Faber, Magdeburg.' at lower right. |
