| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is printed in dark brown on tan paper with a serrated border along all four edges. The town coat of arms occupies the centre, rendered as an ornate heraldic shield set within an elaborate starburst surround with scrollwork; the denomination '1.00 MARK' appears in bold letterpress to the left and right of the arms. The founding year '1571' and issue year '1921' flank the top inscription 'NOTGELD DER STADT ANGERBURG', while two text panels at lower left and right state the redemption conditions, with two manuscript signatures and the issuing authority 'MAGISTRAT ANGERBURG OSTPR.' at centre bottom; the printer credit 'DRUCK: HARTUNG · HAMB.' and designer credit 'ENTW.: ARCHITEKT · HANS PHILIPP' appear in the lower corners. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in brown on tan paper with the same serrated border. A detailed letterpress vignette occupies the lower two-thirds of the note, showing a wintry streetscape of old Angerburg with snow-covered rooftops, stone buildings, and a church tower; the monogram 'HJP21' appears at lower left within the vignette, and the caption 'ALT-ANGERBURG' is set in a white panel at the base. Above the vignette, the commemorative inscriptions identify this as a jubilee issue for the 350th anniversary of the town's founding, with the denomination '1 MARK' overprinted across the architectural scene. |

Angerburg — known today as Węgorzewo in northeastern Poland — issued this note in 1921 as part of the wave of municipal Notgeld that flooded Germany during the postwar currency chaos. The city sits in what was then East Prussia, a region whose political anxiety ran deep following the 1920 plebiscite that confirmed its continued place within Germany over Lithuanian and Polish claims. Local authorities across the region printed their own emergency scrip partly from genuine small-change shortages, partly from civic pride, and partly because collectors were already buying them.
Hartung & Co. of Hamburg handled a large volume of Notgeld commissions in this period. The designer credit to Hans Philipp, identified as an architect, is an unusual attribution — most municipal issues of this type went uncredited.
