| Obverse description | Central field depicts two male workers operating a large screw-press coining machine in high relief, rendered in a vigorous, early 20th-century commercial art style. The legend KRIEGS-NOTGELD arcs across the upper field, with BM and PFORZHEIM inscribed to the left and B.H. MAYER'S / HOF-KUNST- / PRÄGE- / ANSTALT to the right of the figures. Below a horizontal dividing line in the lower exergue, a small heraldic eagle flanked by sprigs of laurel or oak is visible. The overall composition emphasizes the minting craft as both subject and issuer identifier. |
