| Beschrijving keerzijde | The entire face is occupied by a dramatic expressionist vignette printed in black, red, and blue, showing a large bird of prey — likely an eagle — wings outstretched, engaged in combat or descent over a turbulent ground rendered in gestural, woodcut-like strokes. Denomination numerals '40' and the abbreviation 'PF' appear in large red block letters in the upper left and upper right corners respectively. The city name 'ALTONA' is set in bold red capital letters across a dark green ornamental panel at the foot of the design. |

| Opmerkingen |
Altona was still an independent Prussian city in 1921, not yet absorbed into Hamburg — that merger wouldn't come until 1937 under Nazi administrative reorganization. The Magistrat issued this note under the broader emergency money framework that flooded northern Germany after the war, when coin shortages made small-denomination paper a practical necessity rather than a monetary policy decision.
H.W. Köbner & Co. were local printers, and their production shows it — Altona's Notgeld series from this period is generally modest in execution compared to the more ambitious municipal issues coming out of central German towns at the same time.
