Obverse description Blue and yellow-cream letterpress Notgeld printed in the Jugendstil manner, with an ornate architectural border incorporating bearded mask corbels and fruit-laden pilasters at the sides. The central vignette presents a rural church with a pointed steeple set among trees, flanked by two unfurling scroll cartouches that frame the denomination "20 Heller" in Gothic script. The upper register carries the issuer legend "Gemeinde Ockert" in bold Gothic lettering, while the lower register contains the municipality's liability clause, validity date, and three facsimile signatures with their official titles.
