| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in red and blue-grey, centred on a circular vignette bearing the municipal seal of Bruges — a crowned quartered shield within a quatrefoil frame — encircled by the legend "Brugge West. Vl. Gemeente Bestuur". A radiating sunburst guilloche fills the entire field behind the central medallion, with two horizontal stippled bands crossing the design. The issuer name "STAD BRUGGE" appears in bold block lettering at upper left and right, with "KASBON" at lower left and the date "1-6-15" at lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Bruges issued its own small-denomination emergency notes in 1915 under German occupation, when the Belgian franc had effectively vanished from daily commerce — hoarded, requisitioned, or simply absent. These Stadskas ("city cash") pieces were a municipal stopgap, authorized at the local level precisely because the occupying authorities had stripped the normal banking infrastructure of any practical function.
Amedée Visart de Bocarmé was the city's burgomaster, a position he held continuously from 1875 until his death in 1925 — one of the longest civic tenures in Belgian history, which lent the wartime issue a degree of public credibility it might otherwise have lacked.
