| Beschrijving voorzijde | The left half carries a colour letterpress vignette of a residential house with garden path, upon which a wounded veteran in civilian dress is standing, with a circular inset at lower left showing a widow in mourning dress accompanied by a child. The right panel, printed on a light green ground, bears the issuer's title in bold Gothic type, the large denomination numeral '75' in blue, the place and date 'Bochum im Mai 1920', and three manuscript signatures below the legend 'Der Vorstand'; a red circular official stamp is struck across the centre of the note. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The entire reverse is occupied by a large colour vignette of a World War I battle scene, with long columns of infantry advancing across a broad valley landscape beneath a turbulent sky pierced by dramatic rays of light; a German officer in field uniform and Pickelhaube stands at the right observing the advance through binoculars. The denomination '75' appears in the upper right within the sky area, beneath the issuer's title. The composition is framed by a decorative letterpress border of green ivy leaves interspersed with red roses. |

The Provinzialverband Westfalen was one of the larger German provincial welfare bodies administering benefits to war-disabled veterans and dependents of the fallen — the "Kriegsbeschädigte und Kriegerhinterbliebene" of the title. By 1920, with Reichsmark coinage effectively hoarded or melted, numerous provincial and municipal welfare institutions began issuing Notgeld not out of banking authority but sheer administrative necessity, to pay out small benefit amounts when nothing else was available.
The Siedlungskassenverwaltung designation is unusual — this was the settlement fund administration, suggesting the note may have been tied specifically to housing resettlement payments for veterans rather than general welfare disbursements.
