| Obverse description | Central vignette illustrates a traditional wedding procession (captioned 'Alter Brautzug') rendered in a folk-art lithographic style in brown, ochre, and red tones, with a group of figures in historical regional costume walking beneath trees. The denomination '25 Pfennig' appears in Gothic script at lower left, flanked by the place name 'Gross Flottbek', the issue date '1. Aug. 1921', a facsimile signature of the Gemeindevorsteher, and the validity notice 'Gültig bis 1. Sept. 1921' at lower right. The heading across the top reads 'Notgeld der Gemeinde Gross Flottbek' in ornate blackletter script. |

| Reverse description | Central colour vignette presents a scenic view of the Groß Flottbek parish church — a red-brick neo-Gothic structure with a tall spire — set among lush trees and a foreground pond with strolling figures, printed in green, brown, and blue tones. An ornate dark-brown border frames the composition, with the numeral '25' at each upper corner and a partially legible inscription running along all four sides in Gothic script alluding to the church's construction, with the notation 'ERBAUT A.D. 1912' inscribed in the lower central area of the vignette. The printer's imprint 'Kunstanstalt Langebartels & Jürgens, Altona' appears in small text at the lower margin. |
