| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is set against a green guilloche underprint with a dark brown border frame enclosing a central rectangular vignette. The vignette, printed in green, black, and brown, depicts a courtroom scene in a naive illustrative style, with a uniformed official seated at a draped table gesturing toward a group of figures including civilians and a soldier with a rifle. Low German dialect verses appear in banderole panels above and below the scene. |

| Opmerkingen |
Wildeshausen is a small Lower Saxon market town, and its decision to issue notgeld in 1921 reflects the chaotic fragmentation of emergency currency authority in Weimar Germany, where municipal bodies, commercial firms, and savings banks all printed their own obligations when Reichsbank notes became impossible to obtain in small denominations. The Magistrat here acted in its capacity as municipal government — these notes were legal tender only within the local economy, redeemable at the issuing office.
Local printing meant variable quality control, and the 1921 series from Wildeshausen is no exception. Ink registration and paper stock differ noticeably across surviving examples.
