| Opschrift voorzijde | Fünf Pfennige STADT KEMBERG DEN 1. NOVEMBER 1918. Der Magistrat |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, also printed in dark brown on a matching tan guilloche ground with a fine wave-pattern underprint, places the crowned civic arms of Kemberg at centre, flanked by crossed oak and grain branches. The denomination numeral '5' is repeated at both upper corners, and the validity clause 'Gültig bis 31. Dezember 1920' is set in two lines below the arms vignette. A series letter and serial number appear in red at lower left and lower right respectively, with the printer's imprint 'KREY U. SOMMERLAD · NIEDERSEDLITZ · DRESDEN' along the bottom margin. |

Kemberg is a small town in what is now Saxony-Anhalt, and this 1918 emergency issue is exactly the kind of hyperlocal Notgeld that proliferated across Germany as wartime metal shortages stripped pfennig coins from circulation entirely. Municipalities, businesses, and even individual shops printed their own small-denomination paper — legally tolerated, practically necessary. Krey und Sommerlad of Niedersedlitz handled a significant volume of this provincial Notgeld work, which is why their imprint appears on issues from dozens of otherwise obscure German localities during this period.
The redemption obligations on most Kemberg Notgeld were never fully honored — the inflation that followed 1918 made the question largely moot.
