Obverse description Yellow-cream ground within a teal blue rectangular border, centred by a stylised sailing vessel rendered in blue and black, its mainsail bearing the denomination numeral '50' in white; a serial number cartouche in red appears to the lower right. The issuer title 'NOTGELD DER GEMEINDE GARSTEDT' is set in bold black letterpress across the upper field. The lower portion carries a two-line validity clause referencing the Pinneberger Tageblatt and Lockstedter Anzeiger newspapers, flanked by two manuscript signatures above the legend 'COM. AMTSBEZIRK PINNEBERG', with the printer imprint 'KONRAD HANF HAMBURG 8' at the very foot.

Reverse description Yellow-cream ground within a teal green rectangular border, the central vignette executed in dark olive-black letterpress showing two male figures in rural working dress — one young, one elderly smoking a pipe — standing amid tall sunflowers and field crops, with a sailing boat visible on water in the middle distance. Denomination panels in dark ink, each reading '50' above a Pfennig symbol, are set into the left and right margins respectively. The upper legend repeats the issuer title, while the lower margin carries a Low German literary inscription attributing a quotation to Gorch Fock.
