| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in dark brown and olive-gold in a portrait orientation, enclosed within an arched decorative border. The central vignette, signed 'Nausester' in the lower right, depicts two children standing before a wayside crucifix shrine set deep in a woodland scene, rendered in a fine illustrative style characteristic of German Notgeld artistry. The denomination '25 Pfg' appears in ornamental Gothic numerals at the upper left and right corners, and the title 'Das Kreuz im Walde' (The Cross in the Forest) is inscribed in a scrolled cartouche at the base. |

Wiedenbrück's 1921 Pfennig notgeld was issued during the peak of Germany's municipal small-change crisis, when coin shortages and rampant hoarding left local governments responsible for producing their own fractional currency. The city of Wiedenbrück — a small Westphalian market town with medieval roots — was one of hundreds of German municipalities that turned to local printers and designers to fill the gap left by the Reich's inability to supply adequate coinage.
The designer credit "Nausester" is uncommon in notgeld literature; this appears to be a locally engaged artist rather than one of the commercial design firms that supplied generic notgeld artwork to multiple municipalities simultaneously. That regional specificity is usually the only thing that distinguishes one town's fractional emergency paper from another's.
