| Obverse description | Dark navy blue letterpress text on plain white paper, entirely typographic in composition with no pictorial vignette. The word 'Notgeld' is set in large blackletter type across individual boxed frames at the top, followed by a double-ruled rectangular panel enclosing the issuer name 'Gemeinde Oberalm', the validity date, and the mayor's name in Gothic script. At the foot, three bordered compartments display the denomination '75' flanked by the word 'Heller' on each side. |

| Reverse description | Black letterpress text on plain white paper, with the obverse design showing through as a ghost impression. The central panel carries a four-line Bavarian dialect verse in blackletter type, serving as a folksy moral saying in lieu of any pictorial decoration. The obverse typographic framework — including the boxed 'Notgeld' header and denomination panel — is visible in mirror image as a show-through from the thin paper stock. |
| Reverse lettering | Jeder moant, nur er hat recht, Ob's a Herr is, oda Knecht. Daweil geht umadum nix z'samm, Weils aöl mitanand z'weng Einseh'n ham. |
