| Beschrijving voorzijde | Letterpress-printed notgeld in brown on tan, with a repetitive guilloche underprint of small octagonal '25' units covering the entire field. A central oval cartouche carries the issuing authority text and serial number in blackletter script, flanked left and right by rectangular panels each bearing the bold numeral '25' above the word 'Pfennig'. The year '1920' appears in large numerals at the base of the central oval. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Brown-on-tan reverse framed by a wavy-line guilloche border, with the denomination numeral '25' in large white-outlined figures at the upper-left and upper-right corners. The central vignette, rendered in a bold expressionist illustrative style, shows three muscular male figures straining collectively to raise or support a massive stone slab, evoking themes of labour and post-war reconstruction. The printer's imprint appears in small capitals along the lower margin, with the word 'Wiederaufbau' (Reconstruction) inscribed within the composition. |

This note is part of the vast German Notgeld phenomenon — the emergency small-change coinage shortage that gripped Germany after World War I drove thousands of municipalities and districts to issue their own paper denominations, often in the 10 to 50 Pfennig range. The joint issuance across three administrative districts simultaneously — Bonn-Stadt, Bonn-Land, and Siegkreis — was a practical workaround, spreading production costs through M. Dumont Schauberg, the Cologne publisher better known for printing the Kölnische Zeitung.
The "b" variant suffix in the DeNG reference indicates a distinguishing detail within the type — likely a serial number range or paper batch distinction catalogued by specialist researchers after the fact.
