| Reverse description | The central field displays the large bold numeral 5 dominating the design, with the denomination MARK inscribed beneath it in block capitals. A diagonal ribbon or scroll overlays the numeral, bearing the inscription QUITTUNG ÜBER (meaning 'receipt for'), referencing the token's function as a ghetto scrip receipt. A circular legend in raised letters surrounds the field, reading DER AELTESTE DER JUDEN IN LITZMANNSTADT, separated by two small dot stops. The overall design is utilitarian and typographic in character, consistent with emergency coinage. |
