Obverse description A bold silhouette vignette occupies the upper portion, illustrating a folkloric negotiation scene between two demonic figures flanking a central arch framing the coloured civic arms of Thale, with an owl perched at upper left and a serpent coiled at lower right. The denomination '50 Pfennig' appears in octagonal cartouches at each lower corner, printed in red. Below the main vignette, a pointed arrow-shaped panel bears the commemorative inscription in red and black letterpress, with the Mayor's facsimile signature centred at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is dominated by a photographic half-tone vignette printed in grey-blue tones, showing six figures riding a toboggan down a snow-covered slope through a wooded Harz winter landscape. The scene is enclosed within a thick black ruled border, with the caption lettered in a flowing script along the lower margin.
