| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a panoramic vignette of the Staßfurt town skyline, with two prominent church towers and a densely packed roofscape rendered in dark letterpress against the fine guilloche underprint. The denomination '25' in large red numerals flanks the heading 'Stadt Staßfurt' at the upper left and right, each followed by 'Pfennig' in Gothic script, while a red serial number appears to the right of centre. A validity clause in small Gothic type runs across the full width of the lower margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Staßfurt sits at the heart of Germany's potash mining region, and by 1918 the wartime metal shortage had made even small-denomination coinage effectively disappear from daily commerce. Municipal notgeld of this kind was a practical fix — local authorities printing their own fractional paper to keep market transactions moving when the Reichsbank couldn't supply adequate coin.
J. P. Himmer of Augsburg handled a substantial volume of municipal emergency issues during this period, which kept production costs manageable for smaller towns. The Augsburg connection has occasionally caused catalogers to misattribute these notes to a Bavarian issuer.
