| Obverse description | A panoramic vignette of the town of Wohlau occupies the lower half of the note, rendered in brown letterpress with fine line engraving showing the town skyline with church tower and surrounding buildings. The denomination '25' appears in large numerals at left and right flanking the central header inscription, set against a light blue guilloche underprint with decorative rosette corner elements. The date and serial number are printed below the vignette, with a manuscript signature of the Verwaltungsrat (board of directors) and the printer's imprint 'Selmar Bayer, Berlin SO 36' at the base. |
