| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a polychrome pictorial design divided into three registers: two craftsmen in work aprons stand within arched niches framed by foliage, the left figure holding a hammer beside a cartwheel and the right figure beside a bicycle wheel, evoking the town's artisan trades. Between them, a central roundel depicts a hand gripping a hammer before a radiating sun motif, with the numeral '10' repeated in each quadrant around the roundel. Below, a plain panel bears the large red numeral '10' flanked by 'Pf.' in black Gothic script, with the legend 'Notgeld der alten Hansestadt Lemgo.' The printer's imprint 'FLEMMING-WISKOTT A.-G. GLOGAU.' appears at the foot of the note. |

| Opmerkingen |
Flemming & Wiskott in Glogau were among the more prolific Notgeld printers of the early Weimar period, supplying dozens of municipalities simultaneously during the 1921 small-change crisis, when coin hoarding and metal shortages made low-denomination currency functionally unavailable in everyday commerce. Lemgo's issue was part of that wave — a practical stopgap rather than the collector-oriented Serienscheine that many towns were already producing cynically for philatelic profit.
Lemgo itself is one of the better-preserved Renaissance towns in Westphalia, but that's incidental here. The note exists because Germany's postwar monetary infrastructure had not yet collapsed entirely — that came later — but had already lost its grip on the small end.
