| Obverse description | The face is divided into three vertical panels enclosed by a teal geometric border with foliate corner ornaments: the central panel carries the Ambergau coat of arms — a winged helm surmounting a quartered shield with baroque mantling — above a serial number in black letterpress, while the flanking yellow panels each bear a stanza of German verse in Gothic blackletter script. The header "Ambergau Notgeld" runs across the top, and the lower margin carries the redemption notice attributing the note to Buchdruckerei Heinrich Rehmann, Bockenem, accompanied by a swastika used as a period decorative ornament. |

| Reverse description | The back centres on a large colour panoramic vignette of the town of Bockenem rendered after Matthäus Merian's 1651 engraving — captioned "Stättlein Borelem im Stift Hildesheim" — showing church spires, rooftops, trees, a winding river and rolling hills beneath a light blue sky. The denomination "75 Pf" appears in large ornate Gothic blackletter within decorative gold panels on the left and right flanks, and the entire composition is framed by a teal geometric border with corner ornaments and the header "Ambergau Notgeld" at top. |
| Reverse lettering | Ambergau Notgeld 75 Pf Stättlein Borelem im Stift Hildesheim Nach Merian aus dem Jahre 1651. |
