| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in black, olive-green, and red in an Expressionist woodcut style, centred on a theatrical puppet-stage vignette framed by stone pillar borders, within which the Kasperle (Punch) figure confronts a witch and additional puppet characters in an animated scene; the artists' names "Louis" and "Hess" appear in the lower corners of the stage arch. The denomination "50" is repeated in red at the upper corners with "Pfg" in stylised red letterpress at the lower corners, and a two-line rhyming verse in Gothic script occupies the lower margin. The series letter "B" is printed in red at top centre, flanked by the inscriptions "Im Muster" and "Zimmer". |

Sonneberg was the center of Germany's toy and doll manufacturing industry, which made puppetry an obvious — if unusually charming — choice for a Notgeld series. The city leaned into its commercial identity with deliberate intent; the imagery wasn't decorative whimsy but civic branding during the inflationary chaos of 1922, when municipalities across Germany were producing their own emergency scrip to cover the collapse of small-denomination Reichsmark coinage.
Issue B designates the second release within this series — the Thüringische Verlagsanstalt in Jena printed several Sonneberg Notgeld runs, and distinguishing between issues matters for completeness. The "2/6" in the reference suffix confirms this is one of six notes in that release.
