Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse is printed in black on buff paper and centres on a large starburst-shaped cartouche with pointed rays radiating into a dark crosshatched ground. Within the cartouche the issuing authority legend appears in bold sans-serif capitals above the large denomination numeral '20 Pf' rendered in a decorative horizontally-lined typeface. The date 'NOV. 1921' and the authority line 'DER MAGISTRAT' are set below the denomination, and the printer's imprint 'R. BLANKENSTEIN' appears in small capitals at the foot of the note.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse is printed entirely in black on buff paper and carries a bold expressionist vignette of an industrial coal-mining or power-plant complex, with multiple tall smokestacks emitting billowing smoke clouds rendered in heavy woodcut-style linework. The denomination numerals '20' appear at upper left and lower right corners, with the abbreviation 'Pf' at upper right and lower left, all in the same decorative lined typeface as the obverse. The designer's name 'HART · MANN' is inscribed in small capitals at the lower centre beneath the industrial scene, the whole composition framed by a double-ruled border with angular starburst corner ornaments.

Opmerkingen

Waldenburg, in Lower Silesia, was a coal-mining town whose municipal government — like hundreds of German municipalities — resorted to issuing Notgeld in the early 1920s when official small-denomination coinage effectively vanished from circulation. Chronic hoarding and metal scarcity after World War I left local economies starved of change. Richard Blankenstein was a regional printer active in the Notgeld trade, producing municipal issues for several Silesian towns during this period.

The designer credit to Hartmann is notable — named designers on small Notgeld pieces were not universal, and their inclusion here suggests the municipality treated this as more than a purely functional stopgap. Waldenburg passed to Poland after World War II and was renamed Wałbrzych in 1945.
