At centre, a circular vignette carries the heraldic lion of Düsseldorf rendered in ochre. A text block in German script below states the validity of the note at all city cashiers until 31 March 1920, with the date 'Düsseldorf, den 1. Dezember 1918' and the signature designation 'Der Oberbürgermeister' at lower right. |

Düsseldorf's 1918 25 Pfennig Notgeld was issued as the Reichsbank's coin supply collapsed under wartime metal requisitioning — zinc, nickel, and copper were pulled for shell casings, leaving municipal authorities scrambling to fill the gap with emergency paper. Cities across Germany issued their own small-denomination notes with minimal central oversight, which is why the quality, format, and lifespan of these issues varied so dramatically from one town to the next.
Düsseldorf's wartime Notgeld issues were functional stopgaps, not collectibles — though the postwar inflation series that followed became a different matter entirely.
