| Obverse description | The upper portion carries the issuer's name 'Stadt Gollnow' in bold Gothic script. The central vignette is a silhouette scene of a farmer ploughing a field with a pair of oxen, set against a radiating sunburst in yellow. Flanking the central scene on both left and right are octagonal denomination cartouches bearing '50 Pf' in yellow and black, framed by sprigs of foliage. The date '3. Aug. 1921' and serial number appear along the lower margin, accompanied by two manuscript signatures for 'Der Magistrat'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a central rectangular panel containing a silhouette vignette, signed 'Elisabeth Förster' in the upper left corner, showing a wolf fleeing in retreat from a Hussar soldier accompanied by what appears to be an overturned cannon or cart. The panel is flanked on both sides by tall Art Nouveau-style borders with stylized floral and foliate motifs in green, blue, and yellow, each incorporating '50 Pfg.' denomination cartouches. Humorous rhyming couplets in Gothic script appear above and below the central panel. |
| Reverse lettering | Mit eingezagnem Schwanze Entfloh der Wolf erschrocken. Nach solch Hularentanze Kann man mit Recht frohlocken! |
