| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Green and black Notgeld note with a fine guilloche underprint of repeated heart motifs across the entire field. The issuer's name "Marktgemeinde Thannhausen" appears in Gothic blackletter script at the top, with the denomination numeral "25" at each upper corner and the word "Gutschein" centred above the spelled-out value "Fünfundzwanzig Pfennige" in bold Gothic type. A large green "25" underprint is visible at centre. Two facsimile signatures appear below, attributed to the Marktmagistrat Thannhausen and the Vorstand der Gem.-Bevollm. respectively, with a validity clause at the foot referencing the markets of Thannhausen, Münsterhausen, Ziemetshausen and surrounding communities of the Mindel and Zusam valleys. The printer's imprint "J. P. Himmer, Augsburg" is set below the decorative scalloped border. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Printed entirely in black, the reverse is dominated by a finely engraved vignette of the Thannhausen town arms — a fortified castle with multiple onion-domed towers and a central conifer — set within a circular cartouche framed by elaborate baroque scrollwork and acanthus ornament. A horizontal ribbon banner bisects the composition, bearing the inscription "Marktgemeinde Thannhausen" in Gothic blackletter. The denomination "25 Pf." appears in green at each of the four corners against the otherwise unprinted paper. |

Thannhausen is a small Bavarian market town in Swabia, and this note belongs to the vast wave of municipal Notgeld issued across Germany and Austria between 1914 and the early 1920s, when coin shortages left local governments scrambling to create fractional currency. Thousands of towns and villages did the same, but the sheer volume of surviving Kleingeldscheine from this period means condition and print quality matter considerably — Himmer in Augsburg was a competent regional printer, not a prestige house, and production consistency across the series varied.
The watermarked paper provides the only real security feature, a deliberate choice given that counterfeiting small-denomination municipal scrip was largely pointless.
