| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain cream paper note printed entirely in dark red, enclosed within a dotted ornamental border with rounded corner cartouches bearing the denomination numeral '80' in each corner. The title 'Gutschein der Gemeinde Lebing' is set in Gothic blackletter script across the upper portion, above a multi-line text block in German Fraktur declaring the issuance of vouchers totalling 28,000 Kronen by resolution of 3 June 1920, redeemable at the municipal treasury. The date 'Lebing, am 3. Juni 1920' and the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister Karl Ohlinger appear in the lower section, with an anti-counterfeiting warning at the foot. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in dark red on cream paper and carries a pictorial vignette occupying the central field, rendered in a loose illustrative style typical of Austrian Notgeld of the period. The scene portrays a rural landscape with figures — apparently peasants or villagers at rest — set against a wooded hillside backdrop. The denomination '80' appears in scroll cartouches at upper left and lower left, while the vertical inscription 'GUTSCHEIN' runs along the right margin in an ornamental panel. A border of stylised floral and four-petal motifs frames the entire composition. |

| Opmerkingen |
Lebing is a small parish in Styria, and this 80 Heller note is a product of the Austrian Notgeld wave that followed the economic dislocation of the immediate postwar period. With the old Habsburg monetary system in collapse and coin hoarding rampant, hundreds of tiny municipalities — Lebing among them — were legally permitted to issue their own emergency fractional currency. The 80 Heller denomination is an odd one, not the round figures most communities chose, which suggests it was calculated to fill a specific local gap in circulation rather than issued speculatively.
Karl Ohlinger, who signed as issuing authority, was almost certainly the municipal administrator rather than a treasury official in any formal sense.
