| Beschrijving voorzijde | Blue-toned note with a teal guilloche underprint throughout. The Wilster municipal coat of arms — a crenellated tower above a fish on waves — occupies the upper left, set within a rectangular vignette. The denomination is rendered in large decorative blackletter script reading 'Zwanzig Mark' at centre, with the numeral '20' in a separate panel to the upper right. Below, the issuer name and date are set in serif type, followed by three manuscript signatures of the board ('Der Vorstand') and a red circular official stamp at lower left; the serial number appears in red numerals within a central cartouche. |

Wilster is a small market town in Holstein, and by 1918 its municipal savings bank — like hundreds of similar institutions across Germany — was forced into emergency note issuance as the Reichsbank's small-denomination coinage vanished entirely from circulation. The Kleingeldersatz problem had become acute by mid-war, and local Sparkassen stepped in where the central monetary apparatus could not.
H. W. Köbner & Co. in Altona handled a substantial volume of Notgeld printing for Schleswig-Holstein municipalities during this period. The firm's proximity to these small northern issuers made it the practical choice — Altona was then still an independent city, not yet absorbed into Hamburg.
