| Obverse description | Green and black letterpress Notgeld note on a green-tinted ground, with the large bold denomination '25' and legend 'PFENNIG' at upper left, alongside the municipal arms of Ansbach — a shield bearing three fish over diagonal hatching — flanked by the commemorative dates '1221' and '1921'. The bold Gothic text 'JUBILÄUMS-NOTGELD DER KREISHAUPTSTADT ANSBACH' occupies the upper right, below which a red handstamped serial number appears between the validity clauses 'NUR MIT DER AMTL. NUMMER' and 'GILTIG BIS AUF WIDERRUF'. The issuing authority 'STADTRAT 12·8·21' and a manuscript signature above the title 'RECHTSK·1·BÜRGERMEISTER' appear in the lower portion, with the designer's credit 'WILLY FLACH' printed in the lower margin outside the border frame. |

| Reverse description | Green and black vignette in a flat paper-cut silhouette style against a green ground, with the year '1805' in bold numerals at upper left above a stark black skyline of Ansbach rendered with church towers and decorative windmill-like motifs. To the right, two soldiers in Napoleonic-era uniform march in profile, one shouldering a rifle with fixed bayonet. A lower panel carries the inscription 'BERNADOTTE' in bold letters between decorative lozenges, referencing French Marshal Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte's historical presence in Ansbach in 1805. |
