| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in dark reddish-brown letterpress on plain paper with a pale underprint of repeated heraldic vignettes, the note is framed by a single-rule border with a bold Gothic script header reading "Notgeld" at upper left and "der Stadt" at upper right. A central architectural vignette depicts the Goldberg town hall seen through an ornate arched gateway, flanked on each side by the denomination numeral "25" in decorative script accompanied by wheat-ear sprigs. The lower register carries a red circular municipal seal stamp at centre alongside a serial number, the issuing locality "Goldberg i. Mecklbg." at lower left, and manuscript facsimile signatures of the city council ("Der Rat") with the date "Goldberg, d. 20. Nov. 19" at right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Goldberg is a small market town in Mecklenburg, and in 1919 it was doing what hundreds of German municipalities were forced to do: printing its own emergency money because the national coinage had essentially vanished from circulation. The coin shortage, already severe by 1917 due to wartime metal demands, became acute after the armistice when economic dislocation continued while Reichsbank supply chains recovered slowly. Friedrich Scheffler was a local printer — not a security printing house — which is precisely the point. These notes were never meant to last.
The official stamp is the primary authentication device, applied by the city administration after printing.
