| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a bold woodcut-style vignette in red-brown and black, occupying nearly the full field, and portraying a bearded man in left-facing profile — identified by the inscription 'Bröckmann' — shown reading from a book titled 'Die Heidklaue'. A Low German verse in large gothic lettering runs across the top and bottom of the note. At lower left, the series designation 'Niedersächsische Dichterferie No. 3' is printed in small type, with the printer's imprint 'DRUCK: GEBR. JÄNECKE, HANNOVER' at lower right; the artist's signature 'Prelle 22' appears within the vignette. |

| Opmerkingen |
The "Altershilfe des deutschen Volkes" — old-age relief of the German people — was a welfare fundraising scheme that operated through token scrip rather than conventional charitable collection. Participating municipalities and provincial bodies issued these notes as a form of quasi-currency tied to donations, allowing them to circulate locally before redemption. Hannover's Provinzial-Ausschuss issued this piece during the early inflationary spiral of 1922, before hyperinflation made such fixed-denomination charitable instruments completely unworkable within months.
Gebrüder Jänecke, a well-established Hannover printing house with deep roots in quality commercial printing, handled production — a local commission for a local cause. The designer credit to Prelle is uncommon enough that attribution remains imprecise.
