| Aversbeschreibung | The entire face is occupied by a multi-line inscription in raised Latin lettering across the flat field, reading 'BOCHUM- / STADT u. LAND / -*- / GELSENKIRCHEN- / LAND / -*- / HATTINGEN- / KREIS', identifying the three jointly issuing administrative districts. Small six-pointed star separators divide the three district names. The design is entirely typographic, with no pictorial elements, and is enclosed by a plain raised rim. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The large numeral '25' dominates the center of the field in bold raised figures. Above, the curved legend 'KRIEGSGELD 1918' arcs along the upper periphery, with the date '1918' appearing at the right. Below the numeral, the denomination 'PFENNIG' is inscribed in a straight horizontal legend. At the base of the field, a small sprig of oak with acorns and leaves serves as a decorative device. The design is enclosed by a plain raised rim. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Issued jointly by three neighboring Ruhr industrial districts in 1918, this piece is a product of the acute metal shortages that forced hundreds of German municipalities to produce their own emergency coinage — Notgeld — as the war economy consumed copper and nickel for munitions. Iron was the fallback, and it corrodes badly in circulation, making undamaged survivors harder to find than mintage figures alone would suggest.
The tri-district arrangement was administratively unusual; most Notgeld issuers acted alone. Bochum, Gelsenkirchen, and Hattingen shared a common labor pool in the coal and steel industries, which likely explains the cooperative issue.
