| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in red, black, and gold on cream paper, enclosed within a red outer border. The header panel is divided into three compartments: the denomination '20 Pfg.' at left in bold Gothic script, the issuing authority 'Stadtkreis Forst-Lausitz' at centre in red Gothic lettering, and 'Zwanzig Pfennig' at right. The central vignette presents a panoramic silhouette of the industrial skyline of Forst, with factory chimneys emitting billowing smoke rendered in fine line engraving; flanking this scene are two heart-shaped cartouches framed in gold scroll-work, the left bearing the city's heraldic red antler on a pale ground, and the right containing a weaver's shuttle — emblems of the town's textile industry. The lower panel carries the validity clause and date of issue in Gothic script, signed by the Magistrat. |

| Opmerkingen |
Forst an der Neiße was one of hundreds of German municipalities that issued Kleingeldersatz — substitute small change — during the inflationary chaos of the early Weimar years, when metal coinage had effectively vanished from everyday transactions. The Carl Flemming & Wiskott printing house in Glogau was a prolific producer of this Notgeld, supplying multiple Silesian and Lausitz communities simultaneously, which accounts for the relatively consistent print quality across what were nominally local emergency issues.
The designer credit to "Heinz" — a single surname or possibly a first name used professionally — remains unresolved in the literature.
