| Beschrijving keerzijde | An allegorical pen-and-ink style vignette occupies the central field, illustrating the causes and consequences of the First World War: a cloaked sinister figure stands amid directional signposts labelled 'Holland' and 'Schweiz', clutching a bag marked 'Hart Geld', while scattered banknotes and a distant townscape fill the right background. The arched legends 'Ursache' and 'Folgen' (Cause and Consequences) flank the dates '1914–19' and '1921', with the numeral '40' in a beaded roundel at centre. A vertical left panel carries the issuer name 'Gemeinde Meggenhofen' and date '1920' in diagonal Gothic script, with a small vignette of a church below, and the denomination 'Vierzig Heller' in bold Gothic type runs across the foot. |

Meggenhofen is a village in Upper Austria with a population that barely cracked a few hundred in 1920. That a municipality this small issued its own emergency currency is less surprising than it sounds — the postwar collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monetary system left even minor parish-level communities scrambling to produce Notgeld when small-denomination coinage simply vanished from circulation. The single signature, Hattinger, almost certainly belongs to the local Bürgermeister rather than any banking official.
The Jaksc/Pick reference suffix "IIb" indicates a recognized variety within the series, suggesting at least minor printing or paper variations were documented by catalogers.
