| Obverse description | Central vignette in fine line-engraving style presents a panoramic view of the Drachenfels ruin (Ruine Drachenfels) with a sweeping upstream Rhine valley vista, drawn by W. Redeligx of Rhöndorf. The lower centre bears the coloured municipal coat of arms of Bad Honnef flanked by vignettes of dwarfs and woodland scenes, with the serial number and denomination '99 Pfg.' in ornate Gothic letterpress to the left. Extended columns of verse in black-letter script occupy the left and right margins, and validity and redemption instructions appear to the lower right alongside manuscript signatures, all within a double-ruled border. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a large central vignette in fine pen-and-ink engraving style, presenting a sweeping panoramic view of the Rhine valley as seen from an elevated vantage point, with the river winding through rolling hills, riverside settlements, trees, and distant mountains rendered in detailed cross-hatching. The artist's signature 'gez. W. Redeligx Rhöndorf' appears in the lower left corner of the vignette. Above the ruled border, the place name 'BAD HONNEF AM RHEIN' is lettered in bold printed capitals across the top of the note. |
