| Obverse description | Vertically oriented notgeld note printed in dark carmine-red on a pale blue-grey guilloche underprint. At the top, an oval cartouche bears the legend "GEMEINDE KLAUS" arching above a central numeral "60" in bold relief, with "HELLER" inscribed on a banner below; the cartouche is flanked by stylised Alpine flowers. The central vignette, set within a beaded oval frame, presents a detailed landscape view of the Klaus valley with buildings, forested slopes, and a dramatic rocky mountain backdrop rendered in fine letterpress engraving. A second denomination panel at the foot repeats "60 HELLER" within an ornate scrollwork surround. The notation "3. Auflage" (3rd issue) appears in the lower left margin. |

Three manuscript signatures appear below, identified by printed role labels: Kassier (cashier) at left, Bürgermeister (mayor) at centre, and Bürgermeister-Stellvertreter (deputy mayor) at right. The printer's imprint "Entwurf u. Druck v. F. Seitenberg (Inh. K.W. Müller) Wien III." is printed in small type at the foot. |
