Obverse description Tan-coloured Notgeld note printed in black letterpress, with a thick black border frame. To the left, the large numeral '75' above the denomination 'PFENNIG' is set above the heraldic shield of Ansbach — a divided escutcheon with three fish on wavy horizontal lines — flanked by the jubilee years '1221' and '1921'. The right half carries the multi-line inscription identifying this as a Jubiläums-Notgeld of the Kreishauptstadt Ansbach, with a stamped red serial number across a wavy red underprint band, validity clause, the issuing date '12·8·21', a manuscript signature above the printed title 'RECHTSK·1·BÜRGERMEISTER', and the designer credit 'WILLY FLACH' at the lower margin.

Reverse description Tan ground within a solid black border, the reverse carries a bold silhouette vignette in the Scherenschnitt (paper-cut) style, showing a Napoleonic-era soldier in full uniform with rifle and bayonet advancing from the right, set against a panoramic skyline silhouette of Ansbach's church towers and rooftops, with crossed military standards to the left. The year '1805' is inscribed in the upper left, referencing the Napoleonic occupation of Ansbach, and a decorative panel at the foot of the vignette bears the city name 'ANSBACH' in stylised lettering.
