| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central field is set against a yellow guilloche underprint within a decorative border of wavy rules and yellow double rules, with the numeral '25' in large bold type at each corner. The vignette at lower centre presents the heraldic lion rampant in gold on a black oval field beneath a crown, serving as the municipal arms of Ranis. Issuing authority text, denomination in Kurrent script, date, and a handwritten magistrate's signature appear in the central panel above the serial number. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed letterpress vignette occupies the left and centre of the note, showing Burg Ranis perched atop a wooded rocky hill rendered in fine engraved line work against a pale blue-grey ground. To the lower left, the municipal coat of arms — a golden lion rampant on a shield surmounted by a crown — is rendered in gold and grey. The denomination '25 Pfennig' appears in large gold Fraktur numerals to the right, while a ribbon scroll at the top carries the town name and a second scroll at the bottom bears a literary quotation. The printer's imprint appears in small capitals along the lower margin. |

Ranis is a small town in Thuringia, best known for its medieval hilltop castle rather than any financial significance. This 25 Pfennig piece belongs to the vast wave of municipal Notgeld issued across Germany in 1921, when the central monetary system was buckling under postwar inflation and coin shortages left local governments scrambling to keep daily commerce moving. The Wiedemannsche Druckerei in nearby Saalfeld handled production for several Thuringian municipalities during this period, which likely kept unit costs manageable for a town the size of Ranis.
The watermark security feature is worth noting — many issues at this level dispensed with it entirely.
