| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Vivid multicolour Notgeld note with an elaborate decorative border of swirling paisley and floral motifs in red, blue, yellow, and green. At centre top, the municipal coat of arms of Wittenburg — a red castle gate flanked by two heraldic birds on a white shield — is set within a diamond-shaped blue underprint bearing the large denomination numeral '299' in black and yellow with 'Pfg' below. Flanking text panels at left and right carry the issuing authority and locality inscriptions, while the lower central field contains validity and signatory lines. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse carries a large central vignette in a caricature-illustration style, set against a bright yellow background suggestive of stage lighting, showing three figures in formal nineteenth-century attire meeting in a ballroom or hall interior, with additional figures and a musician at right and a candelabrum overhead. The scene illustrates an episode from Fritz Reuter's Low German literary work. The surrounding border repeats the ornate red and blue scrollwork frame of the obverse, and a caption band runs along the lower margin. |

| Anmerkungen |
Wittenburg is a small town in Mecklenburg, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1922, it issued its own emergency small-change currency — Kleingeldscheine — as hyperinflation gutted the purchasing power of official coinage and the Reichsbank struggled to keep denominations remotely useful. The 99-Pfennig face value is notably peculiar: by mid-1922, inflation was already rendering Pfennig-denomination notes near-worthless within weeks of printing.
Feldmann was a regional printer serving several Mecklenburg issues of this period. H. Pinkepank's design credit is unusual — most Kleingeldscheine of this scale went unsigned.
