| Descrizione del dritto | The denomination "1 MARK" is printed in large bold lettering at the top centre, beneath the title inscription "NOTGELD DER STADT WYK AUF FÖHR", flanked by a draped garland of oak leaves. The central vignette presents the municipal coat of arms of Wyk auf Föhr in red and grey, charged with a full-rigged sailing vessel on stylised waves, enclosed within a shield form. Validity text is divided into left and right columns flanking the arms, with two facsimile signatures below under the titles "BÜRGERMEISTER" and "STADTVERORDNETER", and the serial number printed in red at lower right alongside the commemorative date "1819–1920". |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The reverse carries a full-surface lithographic vignette in a restrained palette of sepia, grey and blue tones, illustrating the promenade and beach of the North Sea resort of Wyk auf Föhr. In the foreground, elegantly dressed figures — including a woman in traditional Frisian costume in the right foreground — stroll along a wooden boardwalk, with the open sea, sailing boats, beach chairs and bathers visible in the middle and far distance. The scene is enclosed within a thin ruled border, and the descriptive caption appears in a plain panel along the lower edge. |

Wyk auf Föhr is a small resort town on the North Frisian island of Föhr, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1920 it issued its own notgeld to address the acute shortage of small-denomination coinage in the postwar period. The Gebh. & Kunze firm in Flensburg handled a substantial volume of regional notgeld printing for northern Schleswig-Holstein municipalities during this window — their output was workmanlike rather than artistically ambitious.
Föhr's geographic isolation as an island made coin shortages particularly acute, giving this issue a practical urgency beyond the decorative notgeld craze that was already well underway elsewhere in Germany by 1920.
