| Obverse description | Printed in black on buff paper, the obverse carries the municipal heading VILLE D'AFFREVILLE in a bold banner across the upper field, with the denomination 0fr 25 in large numerals at centre. Decorative scrollwork and floral ornaments frame the corners, and the authorising legend referencing the Municipal Council deliberation of 7 October 1917 appears in two lines across the lower portion. A circular vignette, likely a municipal seal, is visible at the left. |

| Reverse description | Printed in black on buff paper, the reverse is dominated by the bold letterpress inscription TICKET MONNAIE across the upper field, flanked by decorative guilloche panels at left and right. At centre, a circular handstamp in blue ink bearing the commune's name and official seal serves as a validation mark. The overall layout is plain, consistent with wartime emergency currency produced at minimal cost. |
