| Beschrijving voorzijde | Tan speckled ground with a central vignette of the Alsfeld municipal coat of arms — a helmeted shield bearing a lion passant, flanked by red mantling and elaborate crest work rendered in red and black letterpress. Two ribbon banners at the top carry the commemorative inscription marking the 700th anniversary of the city's founding, with the dates 1222 and 1922 placed to either side of the arms. The denomination 100 Pfg appears in large bold numerals at lower left and right, with the issuing authority line, date of issue 25. Juni 1922, and the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister printed beneath the arms. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a large engraved vignette in black ink on a pale ochre ground, depicting the Alsfeld Marktplatz as it appeared in the 17th century. The scene shows the Gothic Rathaus and surrounding half-timbered merchant buildings lining the square, with horse-drawn wagons, market traders, and townspeople animating the foreground in the manner of a period topographical print. The caption identifying the scene is inscribed in the upper right corner. |

| Opmerkingen |
Alsfeld's 1922 Notgeld issue belongs to the later wave of German municipal emergency currency, when inflation was accelerating fast enough that small-denomination pfennig notes remained practical for only weeks before losing meaningful purchasing power. Alsfeld, a small Hessian market town, contracted Scharfes Druckereien in Wetzlar for the presswork — a printer active across numerous Hessian municipal issues during this period rather than a specialist house for collector series.
The DeNG reference groups variants 1 through 4 and 7 under a single type, suggesting minor color or text differences across the run that catalogers have found worth distinguishing but not always easy to attribute without side-by-side comparison.
