| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in blue, yellow, and black on white paper, with an orange border frame. A pale blue sky underprint carries a silhouette of a windmill and village rooftops across the upper field, above which the legend 'Notgeld-Schein' is set in Gothic script. The denomination '1 Mark' appears in two beaded circular cartouches at upper left and right. The central vignette is dominated by the multicoloured quartered coat of arms of Steinfeld, overlaid by the municipality name in large decorative Gothic lettering. The lower yellow band carries the validity date 'Gültig bis 30. November 1921' at left, a manuscript serial number at lower left, and the facsimile signatures of two municipal officials with the designation 'Der Gemeinde-Vorstand' at right. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in a dark brown and ochre colour scheme. The upper portion bears the legends 'Notgeld Schein' flanking a central dotted circular cartouche enclosing the numeral '1', with 'Steinfeld' in large Gothic letters below. The central vignette, set within a rectangular frame, presents an allegorical scene of a reclining male figure sheltering beneath a large open red umbrella, rendered in an expressionistic woodcut-like style against a dark tonal background. Below the vignette, a rhyming motto in Gothic script reads 'Beschirm uns Gott vor Wohnungsnot!' |

Steinfeld is a small parish in the Schleswig district, and its 1921 notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of municipal emergency money that flooded Germany following the post-WWI coin shortage. The Reichsbank had effectively stopped supplying small denominations to rural communities, forcing even minor Gemeinden to commission their own scrip. Steinfeld's issue was almost certainly printed locally or through a regional printer — the small runs typical of such parishes meant limited distribution and rapid withdrawal once metal coinage returned.
High survival rates among notgeld of this period owe more to collector hoarding at the time of issue than to genuine circulation.
