| 裏面の説明 | Printed in brown on cream paper, the reverse bears a large central vignette of Borken's medieval town walls and gate towers, with the civic heraldic shield — a fortified tower surmounted by an onion dome — overlaid at centre. The denomination numeral '25' appears in the upper left and right corners within decorative frames, and a bold inscription along the lower margin reads 'STADT BORKEN 1918', flanked by ornamental scrollwork, with the printer's imprint in small type below. |

Borken's Magistrat turned to Carl Schleicher & Schüll in Düren — a firm better known for its filter paper production than its banknote work — for this series of Notgeld, a choice that reflects the chaotic improvisation of municipal emergency currency during and immediately after the First World War. Hundreds of German towns were doing the same, but the quality of the substrate varied enormously depending on which supplier a Magistrat could actually reach in wartime.
The 1918–1920 date range spans the armistice and the turbulent early Weimar transition, during which Notgeld continued circulating simply because Reichsbank coin remained too scarce to handle small transactions.
