| Opschrift voorzijde | STADT PÖSSNECK NOTGELD 25 Pf. Dieser Gutschein verliert seine Gültigkeit 1 Monat nach Bekanntmachung Magistrat und Gemeinderat: Druck von Johannes Arndt, Jena. |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in teal, ochre, and black on cream paper, with a teal border bearing the word 'PFENNIG' repeated vertically on both side panels and 'PFENNIG * PFENNIG' along the top and bottom bands, with the numeral '25' in each corner. The central vignette, framed by a gold-outlined cartouche, presents a colourful townscape scene of a Kurrende — a procession of robed choristers or schoolchildren in black cloaks moving through a town square before traditional half-timbered and gabled buildings, with figures in folk costume observing from the sides; the caption 'KURRENDE' appears at the base of the cartouche. The printer's imprint 'Druck: Johannes Arndt, Jena.' is printed below the lower border. |

| Opmerkingen |
Pößneck's 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the inflationary surge that followed Germany's postwar economic collapse, when hundreds of municipalities printed their own emergency small-change notes to compensate for the near-total disappearance of metal coinage from circulation. The Johannes Arndt press in Jena handled a significant volume of Thuringian municipal Notgeld during this period, supplying neighboring towns that lacked printing infrastructure of their own.
The 25 Pfennig denomination was among the most commonly requested by issuing towns — small enough to function as genuine change, large enough to justify the printing cost.
