| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in green and black on cream paper, with an orange border framing the entire design. A broad black horizontal band across the centre carries the denomination numeral '75' in large green script on both left and right flanks, with a central oval cartouche in gold and black bearing the crowned lion arms of Zeulenroda above a brick-wall shield. Above the band, a banner panel carries a four-line German verse in bold green letterpress; below the band, three lines of green text identify the issuing authority, validity clause, and date with a facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed in deep red and black on cream paper, with a dark mottled blue-grey background filling the outer field. A central horizontal vignette, set within a dramatically pointed banner form, presents a panoramic bird's-eye view of Zeulenroda engulfed in flames rendered in fine line engraving. The denomination '75' appears in large red numerals in the upper-left and lower-right corners, while two curved ribbon banners carry a German verse referencing the five historic fires that devastated the town in 1566, 1636, 1706, 1790, and 1818. |
