| Beschrijving voorzijde | Green and grey Notgeld note with a central vignette of the Finsterwalde town coat of arms — a medieval gatehouse tower flanked by trees — set within an elaborate cartouche with scrollwork surround. The denomination numeral '25' appears in large green Gothic characters at upper left, with the abbreviation 'Pf.' at upper right. Two ornamental text panels in scrollwork frames flank the central vignette, bearing the payment obligation and validity clause respectively; below the coat of arms, the place and date of issue appear in Gothic script alongside two facsimile signatures of the Magistrat, with the legend 'Notgeld der Stadt Finsterwalde' rendered in large Gothic lettering across the bottom margin. The designer's credit 'fec. E. Janetzky' is noted at lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Finsterwalde's municipal Notgeld issues from 1921 sit in a well-documented category of German inflation-era emergency small change, produced locally when coin shortages made everyday transactions nearly impossible. The designer credit to E. Janetzky is unusual — most town-level Notgeld of this period was farmed out to specialist printers like Giesecke & Devrient or Koenig & Bauer, so local authorship suggests either civic pride or simple logistics in a town of Finsterwalde's modest size.
The dual signatures of Wehle and Haferland represent the standard dual-authorization requirement imposed on municipal issuers to prevent fraudulent overprinting — a real concern in 1921 as the inflationary spiral accelerated.
