Obverse description The obverse is printed in green and cream on plain paper, framed by an ornate guilloche border of scrollwork and foliate corner motifs. The denomination "Fünfhunderttausend Mark" is rendered in large Gothic script across the upper portion, above a block of letterpress text in German confirming redemption conditions at the Hauptkasse Chemnitz and subsidiary works at Oberlichtenau, Scharfenstein, and Tannenberg, valid until 31 October 1923. The issuer's name "Moll-Werke Aktiengesellschaft Chemnitz" appears in the lower right, accompanied by two manuscript signatures and a stamped serial number at lower left, with the date "Chemnitz, den 20. August 1923" centred below the text body; a rectangular cancellation perforation runs through the centre of the note.

Reverse description The reverse is printed entirely in ochre-gold on cream paper and carries no text, relying wholly on a dense repeating underprint of the word "MOLL" interspersed with circular vignettes each containing crossed tool symbols. A large central medallion in white relief displays the stylised "MOLL" monogram over crossed implements within a circular frame, surrounded by the same tiled underprint pattern; the ornate scroll-and-foliate guilloche border from the obverse is repeated on all four sides. A rectangular cancellation perforation, matching that on the obverse, penetrates the central medallion area.
