| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain yellow-tinted paper note with a single circular municipal seal applied by hand stamp in blue ink, centred on the face. The seal's interior carries the city's heraldic device — a pointed shield overlaid on a rayed sun motif and surmounted by a mural crown — with the denomination numeral '25' on the shield body and the abbreviation 'Pf' below. The circular legend, separated at left and right by small six-pointed floral rosettes, reads 'SIEGEL DER STADT' along the upper arc and 'FRIEDRICHSTADT' along the lower arc. |

Friedrichstadt, founded in 1621 by Dutch Remonstrant refugees on the Eider river in Schleswig, retained a distinctly Dutch urban character long after its founding community dispersed — a town small enough that its 1920 Notgeld issues were produced in quantities far lower than comparable municipalities. At 48 × 45 mm, this piece is nearly square, an unusual proportion even within the notoriously idiosyncratic Notgeld format.
The 1920 date places it squarely in the second wave of German municipal emergency currency, issued under chronic coin shortages that persisted well past the armistice. Friedrichstadt's series is not among the heavily philatelic "collector issues" cynically printed for profit in 1921–22 — this was functional small change.
