| Obverse description | Central field features the municipal coat of arms of Tübingen, depicting two crossed antlers above a crowned shield, all rendered in raised relief. The arms are enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The circular legend UNIVERSITÄTSSTADT flanking the top arc and TÜBINGEN along the lower arc runs between the beaded inner border and the octagonal coin edge, separated by small five-pointed stars at the lateral points. The overall design is executed in a plain, utilitarian style consistent with wartime notgeld coinage. |

| Reverse description | The denomination numeral '50' is boldly struck in large characters dominating the upper central field, with the '5' displaying a characteristic open curl whose aperture width varies among die varieties. Below, in three horizontal lines of smaller capital lettering, the inscriptions KLEINGELD, ERSATZ, and the date 1917 are arranged in descending order across the lower portion of the field. The reverse is entirely typographic with no pictorial elements, and the field is bounded by a beaded border running along the inner edge of the octagonal flan. |
