Beschrijving voorzijde A raised pearl border encircles the entire obverse field. At center, the municipal coat of arms of Beckum is depicted — a heraldic shield charged with diagonal bend sinister stripes — flanked by decorative foliate and floral sprays draping from the top. The curved legend STADT BECKUM arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1917 appears in the lower field, separated from the legend by two small floral rosette ornaments positioned at the lower left and right of the shield.

Aanvullende informatie

Beckum's 1917 zinc notgeld belongs to the first wave of municipal emergency coinage forced on German towns when the imperial government requisitioned copper and nickel for war production, leaving local authorities scrambling to keep small change in circulation. Zinc was the compromise material — cheap, available, and deeply unpopular with the public, who found it corroded quickly and stuck to fingers.

The Funck reference places this among the better-documented Westphalian issues.
