Obverse description Central polychrome vignette presents a panoramic view of the town of Bad Segeberg with its medieval castle ruin atop a prominent salt-rock hill, captioned in Gothic script 'Stadt und Burg im Jahre 1580'. The denomination '50 Pfennig' appears in large yellow and black letterpress numerals at left and right, flanking the vignette, while the title 'Notgeld Solbad Segeberg' arches across the top in decorative Gothic lettering with the year '1920' repeated at both upper corners. The lower margin carries the issuing authority text, date of 18 December 1920, and three manuscript signatures above the printer's imprint of Gebrüder Borchers G.m.b.H., Lübeck.

Reverse description Central octagonal vignette presents a finely rendered townscape of Segeberg dominated by the tall spire of the town church rising above densely packed red-roofed buildings, with an open flat landscape receding to the horizon. The denomination '50' appears in large red and cream Art Nouveau numerals on both the left and right borders, with 'Pfennig' inscribed beneath each. Decorative scrollwork borders frame the upper corners, and the lower margin carries 'Notgeld Segeberg' in bold red letterpress.
