| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in black and sage green on cream paper, with a bold Gothic blackletter header reading 'Gutschein der Stadt Monschau' within a tinted band at the top. Two large arabesque-framed diamond vignettes at left and right each bear the numeral '25' in white relief against a dark ground, flanking a central hexagonal cartouche with the validity notice and the issuing date 'Monschau, 1.7.21.' followed by the mayor's title and signature. The lower tinted band carries the denomination spelled out in Gothic script as 'Fünfundzwanzig Pfennige', and the designer's name 'Lütkens' appears discreetly at lower right. |
