Obverse description The left portion of the note carries a coloured lithographic vignette of three figures — a woman in white dress, a man in a striped suit raising his hat, and a child — set against a panoramic townscape of Bad Sulza with the caption 'Krähenhütte' above. The denomination '75 Pf' appears in white Gothic lettering within dark red cartouches at upper right and lower left. The lower right panel, on a cream ground, contains the value spelled out in large blackletter script as 'Fünfundsiebzig Pfennig', followed by the issue text, the circular Stadtgemeinde Bad Sulza seal, the date 'Bad Sulza, am 19. Juli 1921', the series letter 'E', and two facsimile signature lines.

Kennst du das Bad, wo starke Sole fließt,
Der Wein gedeiht, die Sonnenburg dich grüßt,
Ein sanfter Wind von wald'gen Höhen weht!
Mit frischer Kraft von hier es heimwärts geht.
