| Aversbeschreibung | A continuous laurel wreath frames the central field, which bears the full legend of issuance. At the top of the field, the word REDEEMABLE arcs prominently, followed by the redemption period JUNE 15, 1933 TO JULY 15, 1933, and below that the issuing authority CITY OF NORTH BEND OREGON in bold block lettering. In the lower portion of the field, the cursive facsimile signatures of the Treasurer I. N. Hartley and Mayor Edgar McDaniel appear with their respective titles engraved beneath each signature. The natural grain of the Oregon Myrtlewood is visible throughout the field, lending a distinctive organic texture to the piece. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A continuous engraved laurel wreath encircles the central field, tied at the base with a crossed-ribbon motif. Within the wreath, the large numeral 1 dominates the upper field in bold block type, with the word DOLLAR inscribed below in smaller capitals. The natural wood grain of the Oregon Myrtlewood substrate is visible across the entire reverse field, giving the piece a warm, golden-brown appearance characteristic of this Depression-era emergency scrip. |

North Bend issued these myrtlewood pieces in 1933 when the city simply ran out of federal currency — a direct consequence of the banking crisis that followed Roosevelt's emergency bank closures in March of that year. The local scrip was authorized by the city council as emergency legal tender for municipal transactions, and myrtlewood was chosen partly for its regional availability and partly because the dense, figured grain made the tokens genuinely difficult to counterfeit by hand.
North Bend was not alone — neighboring Coos Bay issued its own myrtlewood currency the same year — but the North Bend pieces are the scarcer of the two.
