| Beschrijving voorzijde | A pearl border encircles the entire obverse field. The municipal coat of arms of Nordhalben occupies the center, depicted as a quartered shield: the upper half bears a rampant lion to the left and a hand or arm device to the right, while the lower half displays three wheat sheaves. The circular legend GEMEINDE NORDHALBEN runs along the upper periphery, interrupted at the base by a small decorative rosette ornament. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nordhalben is a small municipality in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, and like hundreds of German towns it issued zinc notgeld coinage during the acute metal shortages of World War I. Municipal authorities across Germany were authorized to produce emergency small change when imperial coinage disappeared from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply never minted in sufficient quantities to meet demand. Zinc was the compromise metal: abundant enough to be practical, worthless enough that no one would bother melting it down.
