| Obverse description | Salmon-toned notgeld issued by the commune of Ossarn, with a decorative border of repeating foliate and geometric motifs in letterpress. A central vignette shows a local church with a steeple set among trees, flanked on either side by the bold numeral '10' and the denomination 'Heller' in Gothic blackletter script. Below the vignette, two lines of text affirm the municipality's liability backed by its movable and immovable assets, with the place and date 'Ossarn, im Mai 1920' and two manuscript signatures above the printed titles of the Vizebürgermeister and Bürgermeister. |
