Obverse description Central field displays the large numeral '50' with the denomination abbreviation 'PF' immediately below, separated by a small decorative foliate spray. The circular legend 'LENGEFELD I. ERZG' arcs around the upper periphery, while the date '1921' appears at the bottom, flanked by raised dot stops. The entire design is enclosed by a raised beaded border. The piece is struck in brown glazed porcelain, lending the surfaces a fine, matte ceramic texture characteristic of Weimar-era notgeld porcelain coinage.
