| Reverse description | The central field features a stylized depiction of the Echaz River rendered as a horizontal wavy line with four sinuous crests, serving as a heraldic reference to the town's coat of arms. The legend 'NOTGELD' arcs across the upper portion of the field in capital letters. The date '1920' is inscribed in the lower field beneath the central device, flanking the numeral '9' with a small pellet separator. The composition is stark and unadorned, reflecting the emergency nature of the issue. |

| Additional information |
Reutlingen's 1920 Pfennig issues belong to the wave of municipal Notgeld that flooded Germany as the central government lost its grip on small-denomination supply after the war. Iron was the material of necessity here — copper had been systematically stripped from civilian coinage well before the Armistice, and postwar procurement remained erratic for years afterward.
