| Beschrijving keerzijde | Olive-brown letterpress reverse centred on an oval vignette of the Oberammergau village panorama with the distinctive onion-domed parish church set against a mountain backdrop, the word 'GUTSCHEIN' arching above within the oval. Flanking allegorical figures — a farmer at left and a craftsman with hammer at right — rise amid stylised foliate scrollwork, with the denomination '25 PFENNIG' across the top. Two facsimile signatures appear along the lower border, with the printer's imprint 'BRENDAMOUR, SIMHART & CO. MÜNCHEN.' at the very foot of the note. |

Oberammergau's 1921 Notgeld issue is inseparable from the town's identity as home to the Passion Play, performed every decade since 1634 in fulfillment of a plague vow. The 1920 production — delayed from 1910 by the First World War — drew international visitors at precisely the moment Germany's postwar inflation was making small-denomination coinage effectively unusable. The municipality issued these notes into that gap.
Brendamour, Simhart & Co. were among Munich's foremost art printing firms, responsible for some of the more carefully produced Bavarian Notgeld of the period. The quality of execution on this series reflects that reputation.
