| Beschrijving voorzijde | Green and black Notgeld note centred on a panoramic landscape vignette set within a cloud-shaped cartouche, presenting a lakeside view of the Bosau countryside with rolling terrain, trees, and a distant church spire. The denomination '25 Pfennige' appears in bold Gothic script within dark corner panels at lower left and right, enclosed by an ornamental green border of stylised foliate and interlace motifs. Below the vignette, a two-line validity notice in Gothic script is followed by the place-date 'Bosau, den 15. Mai 1921' and two manuscript facsimile signatures. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Multicolour reverse in green, red, and black, centred on a bold expressionist vignette of the Petrikirche zu Bosau (St. Peter's Church) amid dense foliage, executed in the woodcut-influenced graphic style characteristic of Hugo Steiner-Prag. A banner across the upper portion of the vignette carries the Gothic inscription 'Kirchspiel Bosau', while vertical side panels bear the church's name and founding date. The border repeats the red and black geometric ornamental pattern of the obverse, with the printer's imprint and designer's credit printed in the lower margin. |

Hugo Steiner-Prag was a serious figure — a Prague-born book illustrator whose work on E. T. A. Hoffmann's "Der Goldne Topf" and the legendary Golem lithographs had already earned him an international reputation by the time this note was commissioned. His involvement in Notgeld design was not unusual for the period; German municipalities routinely recruited working artists to make their emergency scrip collectible by design, since the secondary collector market was by 1921 openly acknowledged as a revenue stream.
Bosau, a small community on the Plöner See in Holstein, issued through Kunstanstalt H. F. Jütte, a Leipzig printer well-regarded for quality Notgeld production during the boom years of the series.
