Obverse description The obverse is printed in red, ochre, and black on cream paper, with a bold Fraktur title inscription KREUZBURG IN OBERSCHLESIEN across the top within a decorative border. A central oval vignette, framed by elaborate acanthus scrollwork and surmounted by a crown, contains the town's coat of arms — a red crenellated castle gateway with a star finial. The denomination 75 Pf appears in large red numerals at lower left and right, flanked by text panels stating the note's validity conditions; the date Kreuzburg O/S, den 18. Oktober 1921 and the magistrate's manuscript signatures appear at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is executed in brown and ochre tones and presents a large architectural vignette of a row of burgher houses lining a town square, viewed through a stone archway that frames the composition. Trees line the foreground pavement, and the Silesian eagle shield appears in the lower left and right corners. A caption panel at the foot carries a literary quotation referencing the novel by Gustav Freytag, with the design registration mark D.R.G.M. 795679 printed in the bottom margin.
