Obverse description Yellow-ground note in Gothic Fraktur script throughout, with the heading 'Notgeld der Stadt N. Marsberg' across the top. A central vignette presents the municipal coat of arms — a red shield bearing a rampant golden lion beneath a turreted castle — flanked on either side by two engraved vignettes of historical Marsberg coins. A bold ribbon cartouche across the lower centre carries the denomination '75 Pfg' in large black letterpress type, beneath which the serial number is printed in red, and the imprint of the printer appears at lower right. Two columns of rhyming verse in Kurrent hand flank the coat of arms, with validity and issuer clauses inscribed below.

The central vignette is a colour-printed topographical scene of the Heilanstalt (asylum or sanatorium) at Marsberg, rendered in a loose illustrative style with bare trees, a church spire, institutional buildings, and a foreground path. Across the upper portion, a teal band carries two lines of rhyming verse in Gothic Fraktur script.
