| Beschrijving keerzijde | Pale buff paper with a wavy-line underprint throughout, centred on a rectangular cartouche with a crown finial enclosing a panoramic view of the Dresden skyline with the Frauenkirche and Hofkirche silhouetted against the sky, executed in a photographic-style vignette by H. Wleynck. Below the cityscape, the arms of Dresden — a crowned eagle above a quartered heraldic shield — are rendered in elaborate baroque scrollwork, with the denomination numeral "20" in black at lower left and right. Vertical panels of small-script legal text in Fraktur flank the central composition on both sides, with the printer's credit and designer's attribution appearing in the upper corners. |

Dresden's municipal administration issued this 20 Mark note under the emergency currency provisions that proliferated across German cities in 1918, as the imperial financial system buckled under wartime strain. Stengel & Co. was primarily a fine-art postcard and reproduction house — an unusual choice for a currency printer, but not uncommon in the Notgeld period, when municipalities turned to whatever quality printing facilities were locally available rather than dedicated security printers.
The embossed seal substitutes for more sophisticated anti-counterfeiting measures, reflecting both the provisional nature of the issue and the material shortages of the final war year.
