| Obverse description | Green note printed in black, issued as a Jubiläums-Notgeld to commemorate the 700th anniversary of Ansbach (1221–1921). The denomination '25 PFENNIG' appears in large bold Gothic numerals at upper left, below which the municipal coat of arms — a shield bearing three fish on wavy diagonal stripes — is printed with the commemorative years '1221' and '1921' flanking it. To the right, the Gothic text reads 'JUBILÄUMS-NOTGELD DER KREISHAUPTSTADT ANSBACH', with a red-stamped serial number and the validity clause 'NUR MIT DER AMTL. NUMMER GILTIG BIS AUF WIDERRUF'. The issue date 'STADTRAT 12.8.21' and a facsimile signature with the legend 'RECHTSK. 1. BÜRGERMEISTER' appear at lower right; the designer's name 'WILLY FLACH' is inscribed in the lower margin. |

| Reverse description | Green note printed in black, entirely occupied by a silhouette-style vignette in the Art Nouveau manner signed by Willy Flach. The scene depicts a huntsman in period costume holding a tall ceremonial staff, accompanied by three hounds in a wooded landscape; a second crouching figure appears to the right. The date '1729' is set in the upper right field, referencing a historical episode associated with Ansbach's Margraviate. A decorative border with small geometric ornaments frames the lower edge, within which the legend 'DIE WILDE MARKG..A' is inscribed. |
