How to recognise it

Only the right and front edges are yellow on top. A full yellow bar on the left, and the back-right corner's yellow faces back.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 50 algorithm backwards, r U' r2 U r2 U r2 U' r, and you are solving 49.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 50 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 50 and not 49.
