Obverse description The upper portion carries the town name 'Stadt Trostberg' in Gothic script on a banner flanked by ribbon ornaments, with the denomination '50' repeated in octagonal frames at lower left and right, inscribed 'FÜNFZIG' above and 'PFENNIG' below in red letterpress. A central vignette presents a panoramic townscape of Trostberg with a church steeple and rows of Bavarian buildings set against a wooded hillside. The lower register contains an ornate baroque cartouche enclosing the Bavarian lozenge arms, flanked by validity and issuing authority text, with the date 'Trostberg im Dezemb. 1920' and a manuscript signature of the Rechtskonsulent-Bürgermeister at lower right.

Reverse description The reverse is dominated by a heraldic vignette set within a richly ornamented Gothic arch: a white castle with red-roofed towers rises from a green mound at centre, flanked symmetrically by two rampant golden lions against decorative foliate scrollwork in blue and gold. The denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennig' is inscribed on crossed ribbon banners at the top in Gothic script. A lower panel in the same typeface carries the Notgeld motto text, separated by a small eagle device.
