Obverse description The upper register carries a spread-winged Prussian eagle vignette in dark olive-green against an orange-red background, flanked by diagonal lances. The central panel presents a detailed cartographic vignette — a battlefield map of the region around Striegau and Hohenfriedeberg with place names legible in letterpress. Denomination numerals '50' appear in orange-red hexagonal frames at left and right, with the issuing authority inscription, date references, and three facsimile signatures of the Stadtbank board printed across the lower sage-green band.

Reverse description The central vignette presents a full-length figure of an 18th-century Prussian soldier in tricorn hat and period uniform, rendered in bold black letterpress against an orange-red ground within a vertical rectangular frame. Flanking the central panel on upper left and right are perched Prussian eagle vignettes in dark olive-green. Verse inscriptions in Gothic script occupy the left and right middle registers, with two boxed legal redemption notices in the lower corners. The denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennige' is set in large decorative Gothic lettering below the soldier vignette, with the designer's name printed beneath.
