| Beschrijving voorzijde | Notgeld issue in a decorative letterpress composition with a central white panel framed by concentric borders in blue, green, and black. The denomination spelled out in ornate Gothic script as 'Fünfundzwanzig Pfennig' dominates the centre, with a pale yellow underprint numeral '25' behind the text. Flanking the central panel are two oval vignettes of the Bavarian blue-and-white lozenge coat of arms, surrounded by stylised edelweiss blossoms on a yellow ground; the issue date 'Königssee, 26. März 1921' and the Bürgermeister's signature appear at the foot of the central panel. |

Königssee is a municipality in the Berchtesgadener Land of Bavaria, best known for the alpine lake of the same name. This 25 Pfennig note belongs to the massive wave of German Kleingeldersatz — small change substitutes — issued by municipalities, companies, and savings banks during the post-WWI coin shortage that preceded the hyperinflationary collapse of 1921–1923. By 1921, Reichsbank coin was being hoarded or melted faster than it could be minted, forcing even small tourist municipalities to print their own fractional paper.
Königssee's Notgeld issues were short-lived; federal emergency currency reforms effectively killed local small-denomination scrip by late 1922, and most surviving examples come from collector series rather than genuine till use.
