Beschrijving voorzijde The left third of the note is occupied by a decorative vignette panel with a green foliate underprint of stylised wheat ears framing the municipal arms of Plau — a red crenellated gate tower on a yellow field with a black bull's head at centre. The right portion carries the issuer title 'Stadt Plau' in ornate red Gothic lettering on a green ground, with 'in Mecklenburg' below in script, followed by the denomination legend 'Gutschein über 25 Pfg.' in large red letters. The redemption clause, two manuscript facsimile signatures above their respective office titles, and a serial number appear in the lower portion, with the printer's imprint along the bottom margin.

Beschrijving keerzijde The left portion of the reverse is taken up by an octagonally framed polychrome vignette, signed 'Ludwig Düwahl-Plau' in the lower margin, showing a fully armoured medieval knight standing before a round red-brick tower, bearing a lance and a shield charged with the Plau municipal arms. To the right, a block of Low German verse text is set in decorative red-and-black Gothic blackletter script, followed by the denomination numeral '25 Pfg.' in large bold Gothic type at lower right.

Opmerkingen

Plau am See is a small lakeside town in Mecklenburg, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1921, it issued its own emergency small-change notes — Kleingeldscheine — to compensate for the chronic coin shortage that had persisted since the war years. The Bärensprungsche Hofbuchdruckerei in Schwerin was a well-established regional press with court printer credentials, frequently contracted by Mecklenburg towns for exactly this purpose.

The designer credit to Ludwig Düwahl, a local Plau resident rather than a professional commercial artist, is the more distinctive detail here — municipal vanity and civic pride in a single attribution.
