| Obverse description | The central vignette presents the municipal arms of Ortelsburg — a bounding red stag before a stand of tall conifers on a green meadow — rendered in bold lithographic colours against a light guilloche underprint. The denomination 'Eine Mark' appears in ornamental Gothic lettering within green quatrefoil cartouches at each upper corner, flanked by oak-leaf borders along the lateral margins. The lower panel carries the issuing authority, date 'Ortelsburg 11. Juli 1921', a validity clause, and a facsimile signature of the Magistrat, with the printer's imprint 'Flemming-Wiskott A.G. Glogau' at the foot. |
