| Beschrijving voorzijde | Dark teal letterpress print on cream paper. The left portion carries a rural landscape vignette rendered in fine line engraving, showing rolling fields, scattered trees, cattle, and a distant village panorama under a cloud-filled sky. To the right, a cartouche with chamfered corners contains the denomination '20 Heller' and the word 'Gutschein' in bold Gothic script, set against a crosshatch underprint. A lower panel bears the issuer name 'Scharten' in large Fraktur lettering, preceded by 'der Gemeinde' in smaller script. The entire design is enclosed within a double-rule decorative border with diamond-shaped corner ornaments. |

| Opmerkingen |
Scharten is a small Upper Austrian market commune that, like hundreds of similarly sized communities, resorted to printing its own Notgeld during the postwar currency chaos of 1920. The Heller had been a functioning subunit of the Austro-Hungarian Krone but was losing practical value rapidly — local authorities printed small denominations not out of monetary ambition but because coins had vanished entirely from everyday trade.
Langhammer in Linz was a regional commercial printer, not a specialist banknote house, which is exactly what most communes could afford. Huemer's signature as issuing authority would have carried the weight of the municipal seal rather than any banking institution.
