| Obverse description | Letterpress-printed Notgeld in red and blue on cream paper, enclosed within an ornate blue geometric border of interlocking scroll and grid panels. The denomination '75 Penn' appears in bold red Gothic script in each corner panel, while the central field carries the title 'Gutschien' at the top in large red Fraktur lettering, below which the value in Low German dialect 'Fief und söbenti Penn' is printed across the width. A circular vignette at centre shows a standing robed figure, overlaid by a hand-stamped serial number; the issuing authority 'Nordseebed Büsum', date '1. Juli 1921', redemption notice 'Jntolösen 31. 12. 21.', and authorisation 'De Ortsvertretung' are inscribed in red below. The printer's imprint 'Drückt bi W. Clausen, Büsum.' appears at the foot outside the border. |

| Reverse description | Blue letterpress vignette on plain cream stock, enclosed within a decorative blue border of rounded petal motifs at the corners and along the sides. The central panel presents a scenic harbour view of Büsum with sailing vessels and a small rowing boat on choppy waters, the town's skyline visible along the horizon; the heading 'Ol Büsum.' is printed in red Fraktur above the scene. Below the vignette, a two-line Low German verse in red script reads: 'Ol Büsum liggt int wille Haff / De Flot de keem un wöhl en Graff. / De Flot de keem un spöl un spöl / Bet se de Insel ünnerwöhl.' |
