Obverse description The note is framed on all sides by an intricate geometric border of interlocking angular motifs printed in green and black, typical of Notgeld artistic production. The issuing authority is inscribed in bold letterpress at the top, while the central field presents the large denomination numeral '75' within a vertical panel of stylised geometric underprint, flanked by the Pfennig currency designation above and below. A red handstamped serial number appears at lower right, with a facsimile signature of the Gemeindevorsteher below the validity clause and the printer's imprint at the foot.

Reverse description The reverse is enclosed by the same angular geometric border as the obverse and carries a finely rendered landscape vignette in letterpress line work with a pale green tint, illustrating a rural scene of the 'Bremer Schweiz' region — a winding country lane lined with large deciduous trees, open meadows, a distant church spire, and figures along the path in the manner characteristic of Lesumidyll imagery. The issuing authority inscription is repeated in bold type at the foot of the composition.
