| Obverse description | The centre of the note is dominated by a large circular vignette enclosing the city arms of Wyk auf Föhr — a red shield bearing a full-rigged sailing vessel rendered in blue and red — with the date split '19 20' at the lower flanks. The surrounding circular legend reads 'INCERTUM QUO FATA FERUNT / GÜLTIG BIS EIN MONAT NACH AUFRUF IN DEN FÖHRER ZEITUNGEN / NOTGELD DER STADT WYK AUF FOHR', framed by a chequered underprint border in blue. The denomination '5 MARK' appears in bold letterpress at the top of the vignette, flanked at upper left and right by stylised '5 M' monograms, with two manuscript signatures below over the printed titles BÜRGERMEISTER and STADTVERORDNETER; the printer's imprint 'Gebh & Kunze, Flensburg' appears at lower right, and a red stamped serial number is applied vertically at the right margin. |
