| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is laid out in an ornate Jugendstil style with a red decorative wave-and-scroll border and corner geometric motifs. The denomination numeral '20' appears in red within dotted circles at all four corners, while flanking foliate sprays in green frame a central vignette of the Nesselwang municipal coat of arms — a polychrome cartouche with baroque scrollwork and foliate surround. The issuing location 'Nesselwang' and date 'Novemb. 1918' are set in Gothic blackletter script on either side of the coat of arms, with the validity clause in Kurrent script above and the designer's signature 'Heinz Schiestl' inscribed at lower right. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse carries the same red ornamental border with wave-scroll guilloche and corner fretwork as the obverse. A central oval vignette, framed by foliate and ribbon ornaments, presents a finely rendered view of the Nesselwang parish church with its tall steeple against a clouded sky. Green acanthus-leaf sprays flank the vignette on both sides, and the denomination numeral '20' in red is placed within dotted medallions at left and right. The issuer's name 'Marktgemeinde Nesselwang.' is inscribed in Gothic blackletter at the top, with 'Zwanzig Mark' in red letterpress below, and the printer's imprint in small capitals at the foot of the note. |

Nesselwang is a small Bavarian market town in the Allgäu Alps, and this 20 Mark note is a piece of wartime Notgeld — emergency municipal currency issued in 1918 as the German imperial monetary system buckled under the strain of the final year of the war. Local authorities across Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg issued their own scrip when Reichsbank notes became scarce in circulation, and small Marktgemeinden like Nesselwang were no exception.
Heinz Schiestl was a Würzburg-born illustrator and woodcut artist with genuine craft credentials, and his involvement lifts this above the purely functional. Druck Schwarz in nearby Lindenberg im Allgäu handled the printing.
