| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Imperial German eagle displayed, featuring a small shield on the breast bearing the Hohenzollern arms, surmounted by the Imperial crown. The eagle is rendered in high relief with outstretched wings, the head turned to the right, and elaborate ornamentation at the base. The entire device is encircled by a wreath of oak leaves tied at the base, with the mint mark 'A' visible at the lower border within the wreath. The field is smooth and unlettered, with all inscriptions absent from this face. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a sunken central panel containing the large denomination numeral '50' above the inscription 'PFENNIG' in bold capital letters, set within a recessed circular field characteristic of this pattern type. The legend 'DEUTSCHES REICH' arcs along the upper periphery, and the date '1902' appears at the lower border, flanked by small oak leaf sprigs. The overall design presents a deeply concave central area framed by a raised rim, lending the piece a distinctive appearance compared to the circulation issue. |
