The denomination numeral '75' in red appears within circular cartouches supported by winged angel figures at lower left and right. The issuing authority legend, validity clause, date 'Wartha d. 11. August 1921', three facsimile magistrate signatures, and the printer's imprint are arranged across the lower half. |

| Reverse description | A naive illustrative colour landscape vignette fills the central field, presenting a view of Wartha circa 1900 with the pilgrimage church complex set against a wooded hillside above a winding river valley in the foreground. The denomination numeral '75' in red is set within circular angel-supported cartouches at lower left and right, mirroring the obverse arrangement. A scrollwork decorative border frames the entire composition, with the validity clause along the upper edge and the caption 'WARTHA um 1900' centred at the base. |
