| Obverse description | Printed on firm white paper in dark blue and dark green over a dusky rose-pink underprint, the obverse centres on a bold woodcut-style vignette of a blindfolded female allegorical figure of Justice holding an upright sword in her left hand and a balance scale in her right, flanked by stone tablets and a fasces-like axe at her feet. The large Gothic blackletter denomination 'VIER MARK' spans the lower field on either side of the central figure, with the year '1921' in white numerals across the top corners. Ribbon banners reading 'SPENDE' and 'FÜR DIE' appear to the upper left and right respectively, while a curved scroll at the base carries the organisation name, and the imprint of the printer appears in small type along the bottom margin. |

| Reverse description | Printed in black and pink on a dark brown ground, the reverse carries the full text of the note's appeal in a plain typeset layout with white lettering, forming a stark, text-dominated composition without pictorial vignettes. The inscription presents a verse quotation in Gothic script, with the issuing organisation's particulars completing the layout. |
| Reverse lettering | WOH SICH DIE VÖLKER DA KANN DIE WOHL:SELBST BEFREIN,FAHRT NICHT GEDEIHN (Translation: Where the people can free themselves, they cannot prosper.) |
