Obverse description Central red vignette panel shows the white Saxon horse (Niedersachsenross) rearing left, a heraldic symbol of Brunswick, framed by a decorative border with hatched side panels. To the left, a dark panel bears the denomination numeral '75 Pf' in bold lettering; to the right, a text cartouche in Gothic script states the note's legal tender validity. Artists' names 'Günther' and 'Clausen' are inscribed below the central vignette. The denomination '75 Pf' repeats in the four corners of the outer beige frame.
Obverse lettering Braunschweiger Notgeld Dieser Schein wird von allen staatl. Kassen in Zahlung genommen. Er verliert seine Gültigkeit am 1. Mai 1923. Braunschweigische Staatsbank Braunschweig, den 1. Mai 1921
(Translation: Emergency money of Brunswick. This certificate is accepted in payment by all state funds. It loses its validity on 1 May 1923. State Bank of Brunswick, Brunswick, 1 May 1921)
Reverse description A multi-figure scene rendered in a woodcut-style illustrative manner occupies the central field, with a bearded male figure standing atop a large fish beside a classical pillar on the left, surrounded by a gathering of people. The composition references local Brunswick legend or mythology, rendered with bold outlines and limited colour typical of Notgeld artistic production of the early 1920s.
