| Obverse description | The obverse features the heraldic shield of Coblenz (Koblenz) at center, displaying a mural crown above horizontal lines on the lower half of the shield, rendered in relief against the flat field. The city name COBLENZ appears as a legend above the shield. Surrounding the shield, the circular legend reads GÜLTIG BIS 1 JAHR NACH FRIEDENSSCHLUSS (valid until 1 year after the peace treaty), running from the lower left to the lower right along the coin's rim. The design is plain and functional, characteristic of wartime Notgeld emergency coinage. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large bold numeral '25' prominently in the center field, indicating the denomination. The legend KRIEGSGELD (war money) arcs along the upper portion of the coin, followed by the date 1918, while PFENNIG curves along the lower rim. Two six-pointed stars flank the central numeral at the left and right sides of the field, serving as decorative separators. The overall design is stark and utilitarian, consistent with the emergency coinage of the World War I period. |
