| Beschrijving keerzijde | The coat of arms of Gräfrath occupies the central field, depicting a crenellated city wall with three towers surmounted by battlements at the top of the shield. Within the lower portion of the shield, a fortified castle gateway is shown with a six-pointed star above and a cartwheel at its base, all set upon a hatched ground. The heraldic shield is flanked on each side by a single wheat or grain ear extending vertically along the field, enhancing the decorative composition. The entire design is rendered in fine relief with no surrounding legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gräfrath was a small textile town in the Bergisches Land region, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1919, it issued its own emergency coinage — Notgeld — to compensate for the acute shortage of small change that followed the collapse of imperial monetary infrastructure at the war's end. Iron was the practical choice: copper and nickel had been commandeered for the war effort years earlier and hadn't returned to civilian minting in any meaningful quantity.
The Funck 168.3 designation places this among the documented die varieties for the issue. Gräfrath itself ceased to exist as an independent municipality in 1929, absorbed into the newly consolidated city of Solingen.
