| Beschrijving keerzijde | The entire reverse is occupied by a large engraved panoramic vignette showing a bird's-eye reconstruction of the Roman legionary legate's palace ('Legatenpalast') at the camp of Vetera near Xanten, with mounted troops and figures in the foreground and a broad river landscape in the distance. A four-stanza verse in the local Lower Rhenish dialect appears in the upper right corner, referencing Emperor Augustus and his legions. The caption at the foot of the note identifies the scene as a reconstruction based on archaeological excavations, and the printer's imprint 'Schleicher & Schull Düren' runs vertically along the left margin. |

Xanten's municipal savings bank joined the vast wave of German Notgeld issuance during the postwar inflation crisis, when coin shortages and currency instability forced hundreds of local authorities to print their own provisional money. Carl Schleicher & Schüll in Düren was a paper manufacturer rather than a specialist security printer — their involvement reflects how desperate issuers were for any capable local supplier.
Xanten itself is a small Rhine town with a Roman past entirely disproportionate to its modern size, but none of that history explains or distinguishes this particular note from thousands of contemporaneous municipal issues.
