Obverse description Green letterpress Notgeld on cream paper. Two workers in period dress flank a central vignette: a miner with pickaxe at left and a laborer with shovel at right, each resting a hand on a dark panel bearing the denomination within an oak-leaf wreath. Below, an arched cartouche names the four issuing municipalities, the date "den 1. Juli 1921," four facsimile signatures, and a validity clause.

Denomination numerals "50" appear in each corner framed by pine-tree motifs. A scrolled ribbon cartouche at the foot carries a two-line motto and the railway's name.
