| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Central vignette of the Kapelle (chapel) built in 1323, rendered in an Expressionist woodcut-like style with red rooftops and a prominent tower amid dark foliage, set within a decorative arched border with a chain-link guilloche pattern. The denomination '25 PFENNIG 25' is inscribed in large red Gothic numerals and lettering across the top, flanked on the left by the Bitterfeld municipal coat of arms and on the right by an eagle shield; the date 'JUNI 1921' appears within the arch above the vignette. A scroll panel at the base carries the issuer inscription 'Notgeld der Stadt Bitterfeld' with redemption text below, and a magistrate signature appears at lower left alongside the designer credit 'ENTW. H. SCHIEBEL BITTERFELD 1921' at lower right. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Upper portion occupied by a Gothic blackletter text panel recounting the great fire of Bitterfeld in 1473, with key words and the city name picked out in red. The central vignette illustrates a dramatic nocturnal conflagration, with sweeping red and orange flames engulfing a darkened townscape silhouette against a deep green sky, and the year '1473' inscribed in red above the blaze. To the left, a white panel displays the denomination '25 Pfennig' with the year '1921' and the phrase 'Im Jahre d. Elend'; to the right, a control panel bears the handstamp 'HAND' over 'Elektrizität' with an overprint cancellation and series designation 'VI'; a rhyming couplet comparing 1473 and 1921 runs across the bottom. |

| Anmerkungen |
Bitterfeld in 1921 was a chemical industry town in Saxony-Anhalt, and like hundreds of German municipalities that year, its local authority stepped in to plug a severe small-denomination coin shortage caused by postwar metal scarcity and hoarding. H. F. Jütte of Leipzig was one of the more prolific printers of Saxon notgeld, handling output for numerous town administrations simultaneously during this period. Schiebel's involvement as designer suggests a commission rather than in-house artwork — a common arrangement when municipalities wanted something beyond plain typography. The DeNG reference places this firmly in the documented Kleingeldscheine series rather than the purely decorative collector-issue notgeld that flooded the market from the same period.
