Obverse description Pink-toned Notgeld note with a central vignette of the Glauchau city gate rendered in grey and teal, flanked by the municipal coat of arms — diagonal red and white stripes — and a crescent moon device to the right. The denomination numeral '75' appears in red within stylised lantern cartouches at left and right, with decorative black diamond ornaments scattered across the field. A serial number in black letterpress is set within a rectangular frame at the lower centre, beneath the date 'Glauchau, 1 Mai 1921' and a manuscript signature on behalf of the Stadtrat.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in green, black, and terracotta on a pink ground, with stylised church-tower vignettes flanking the central panel on each side, each bearing the denomination numeral '75' in green on black. The central vignette, signed by the artist Jacob Binder, is a bold black silhouette on white ground showing two figures seated at a table engaged in animated dispute over beer mugs, rendered in a Scherenschnitt (paper-cut) artistic style. Humorous Gothic-script couplets run along the upper and lower borders, completing the decorative programme.
