| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a full-width pastoral vignette in detailed letterpress illustration, enclosed by the same geometric diamond-pattern border as the obverse. The scene shows a rolling countryside landscape with an oak tree in the right foreground from which a squirrel descends, a bird perched among wildflowers at left, and open fields receding to a gentle horizon. A lower cartouche in italic Fraktur lettering bears the literary dedication to the author Hermann Löns and his work. |

Hemdingen is a village in the Pinneberg district of Holstein — in 1922 its population numbered in the hundreds, which makes its decision to issue emergency currency a minor footnote in the broader Weimar notgeld phenomenon but an interesting one. Thousands of German municipalities printed their own small-denomination scrip during the early 1920s as pfennig coins vanished from circulation, hoarded as metal values climbed against the collapsing mark.
Konrad Hanf was a Hamburg commercial printer who handled notgeld commissions for numerous small communities across Schleswig-Holstein, producing workmanlike but unluxurious pieces with little of the artistic ambition that made some notgeld issues collectible for their own sake.
