| Beschrijving voorzijde | The octagonal flan features a continuous leafy wreath running along the inner border of all eight sides. Within this wreath, a beaded circle frames the central field, in which the bold numeral '20' is prominently displayed above the denomination legend 'PFENNIG' in capital letters. The issuer's name 'STADTGEMEINDE LICHTENFELS' curves along the upper periphery between the wreath and the beaded circle, rendered in raised Latin capital letters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued during the notgeld crisis that gripped German municipalities following World War I, Lichtenfels struck its own emergency coinage in 1921 as the Reichsbank's coin supply remained wholly inadequate for everyday commerce. The Bamberger Tor — the medieval gate for which this piece is named — had stood at the town's entrance since the 14th century before being demolished in the 19th, making its appearance here a piece of local historical recovery in aluminium.
Aluminium notgeld from this period was less common than zinc or iron issues; the material choice in Lichtenfels likely reflects what was available locally rather than any deliberate policy.
