| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue, black, and grey on cream paper, with ornate Art Nouveau foliate scrollwork panels flanking either side, each containing stylized bell-flower motifs. A central vignette presents a silhouetted view of Burg Tost castle atop a rocky hill with bare trees, the name 'Burg Tost' rendered in Gothic blackletter script beneath. The payment order text and denomination 'Eine Mark' appear in flowing Gothic script in the lower centre, with 'Konto E' at lower left and a serial number at lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a central vignette of the ruined gate arch of Burg und Stadt Tost, with the inscription 'CASPAR COMES COLONNA' visible on the arch keystone and lush foliage framing the stonework. To the left and right stand full-length figures in Renaissance-era costume — a lady with a fan and a gentleman in doublet and hose — set against blue panels with scrollwork borders. A lower cartouche contains a small black vignette of a horse-drawn carriage in silhouette, and the patent registration mark 'D.R.G.M. 795679.' appears beneath the design. |
