| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a stylized flowering plant or clover motif rising from a decorative pot or vase, all modeled in relief within the brown porcelain. Surrounding the central device, the incuse legend reads 'Geh ich in Scherben / Wirst Glück Du ererben' (roughly: 'If I break into shards, you will inherit good luck'), a traditional German saying associated with porcelain good-luck tokens. The reverse is encircled by the same raised beaded border as the obverse, consistent with the overall uniform design of this Höhr porcelain Notgeld issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Höhr, a small town in the Westerwald region of Germany, had been a center of stoneware and ceramics production for centuries before the inflation crisis forced municipalities to improvise emergency coinage. The choice of porcelain as a striking medium was no accident — local kilns could produce the blanks with existing infrastructure, and the Meissen and Rosenthal traditions had already demonstrated that fired ceramic could carry impressed designs with reasonable fidelity.
German porcelain notgeld was produced by several Westerwald communities in 1921, each with slightly different clay bodies and firing temperatures, which accounts for the variation in color and density collectors encounter across the series.
