| Beschrijving keerzijde | Pale lavender-pink notgeld printed in black and red-brown, with the same stylized barbed border as the obverse. The denomination '10' and 'PFENNIG' appear at the upper register in bold woodcut numerals. A central vignette, set within a star-shaped frame, presents a two-colour townscape view of Gadebusch with a church tower rising above surrounding buildings and trees rendered in detailed cross-hatching. Small four-pointed star ornaments flank the central vignette at mid-height, and the lower margin carries the inscriptions 'REUTERGELD' and 'STADT GADEBUSCH' in decorative Gothic lettering. |

Gadebusch is a small town in Mecklenburg with a population that barely cracked 4,000 in the early 1920s — yet like hundreds of similarly modest German municipalities, it found itself printing its own emergency money as the postwar currency crisis stripped small-denomination coins from everyday commerce. This is Notgeld in its most local and unglamorous form: a stopgap measure authorized at the municipal level precisely because the central government couldn't keep pace with demand for low-value coinage.
The two signatories — Wulff Möller and Volitz — were almost certainly sitting town officials signing in an administrative capacity, not financial specialists. That kind of detail, easily overlooked, tells you something about how improvised the whole system was.
