Obverse description Dark-ground vignette in Jugendstil style with the city arms of Grünberg at centre, a shield charged with a fortified gateway and towers surmounted by a mural crown, set against a dense background of grapevines with clusters of red fruit. Two allegorical figures in oval cartouches flank the arms — a youth with a fish to the left and a figure wreathed in grapes to the right — evoking the town's identity as a fruit and wine centre. The denomination 'Fünfundsiebzig Pfennig' is inscribed in Gothic script along the lower edge, with the issuer title 'Gutschein der Stadt Grünberg i./Schl.' across the top and the validity date 'Gültig bis 31. Dezember 1921' in a cartouche below the arms.

Reverse description Light-ground note with a decorative border of green grapevine and leaf motifs framing a central vignette. The vignette presents a panoramic townscape view of Grünberg taken from the Ziegelberg hill, rendered in fine line engraving and showing church towers, rooftops, and surrounding orchards and vineyards. The denomination numeral '75' appears in large green figures to the upper left of the vignette, with the inscriptions 'Obst- und Weinstadt Grünberg i. Schl.' and 'Gesamtansicht v. Ziegelberg' in Gothic script above the scene, and the printer's imprint 'OFFSETDRUCK GEBR. PARCUS MÜNCHEN.' below the frame.
