| Obverse description | Printed in blue and yellow-green on pale paper, the obverse centres on a circular vignette of the Scheeßel village church with its distinctive pointed steeple, flanked by half-timbered houses, trees, and horse-drawn carts in the foreground. Denomination cartouches reading '75 Pf.' appear in the upper left and right corners, with the issuer's name arched along the top of the vignette in Gothic script. A text panel below carries the redemption notice, date 'Scheeßel, 1. Okt. 1921', a facsimile signature of the Gemeindevorsteher, and the printer's imprint 'Deutschländer & Co. Nachf., Hamburg' at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse, printed in the same blue and yellow-green palette, bears a full-length vignette of a young woman in traditional Scheeßeler regional costume — a long embroidered skirt, decorative apron, shawl, and headscarf — standing within an arched frame flanked by floral garland columns. A Low German dialect verse curves around the figure in Gothic script, and the caption 'Scheeseler Mädchen' appears below the vignette. Denomination panels reading '75 Pf.' are set in the lower left and right corners, with the issuer's title 'Gemeinde Scheeßel' in a ruled banner across the top. |
