| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse carries a central bird's-eye view vignette of the historic star-shaped fortress of Vechta, rendered in green and brown tones with surrounding moat and settlement. At upper left, the circular city seal of Vechta bears a tower motif with the Latin legend of the city; at upper centre, a narrow panoramic skyline of Vechta is set within a decorative panel beneath the bold Gothic title inscription 'VESTUNGH: VECHTÆ', with the denomination numeral '25' in large bold type at upper right. Below the main vignette, the validity clause, place, date 'Vechta, 15. März 1922', the issuing authority 'Der Magistrat:', and a manuscript facsimile signature appear in black Gothic script, with the printer's imprint 'Louis Koch · Halberstadt' at the foot. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a dramatic silhouette vignette in black, green, and brown, in which robed monks are shown confronting and binding a large bear with heavy chains, with a Romanesque stone building visible in the lower centre — an allusion to the legendary founding of Vechta. The denomination numeral '25' appears in bold white type at lower right within the dark field. A two-line poetic legend in ornate Gothic blackletter script runs across the top and bottom margins of the composition. |

Vechta's 25 Pfennig notgeld of 1922 belongs to the second wave of municipal emergency coinage — issued not under the acute wartime shortages of 1914–18 but during the inflationary spiral that preceded the hyperinflation peak of 1923. By this point, small-denomination coin had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted, and local magistrates across Germany were filling the gap with their own paper.
Louis Koch of Halberstadt was a regional printer producing notgeld for multiple municipalities simultaneously during this period, which accounts for the consistent technical quality seen across issues from different towns bearing his imprint.
