| Beschrijving voorzijde | Light blue and pink Notgeld on paper, with large Gothic blackletter numerals '5' at each corner against a pink border. A central decorative ribbon scroll carries the issuer inscription in Gothic script, with the denomination 'Fünf Pfennig' rendered in large red and black letterpress below. The coloured arms of Orlamünde — a crowned lion on a quartered shield with baroque mantling — are centred in the lower half, flanked by validity and issuing authority text in Gothic script. A serial number appears at the foot of the note. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is divided into two side-by-side vignettes executed in fine line engraving: on the left, the medieval ruins of Orlamünde castle set amid vegetation; on the right, the town church and adjoining civic building rendered in detailed architectural draftsmanship. A Gothic verse runs along the top and sides of the note as a border inscription, with an inverted repetition of the verse along the bottom. A red stamped serial number is printed in the upper centre between the two vignettes. The printer's name 'Gebr. Sporleder' appears in small text below the central dividing line. |

Orlamünde is a small town on the Saale river in Thuringia with a population that barely exceeded a few hundred by the time this note was issued. Like thousands of German municipalities in 1920, it was forced into printing its own small-denomination emergency money — Kleingeldscheine — because the Reichsbank simply could not produce enough low-value coinage to meet everyday demand in the postwar chaos. The Sporleder firm, based in Rudolstadt, handled a significant volume of this Thuringian municipal notgeld work and their output is generally consistent in print quality.
The O24.2a suffix in the DeNG reference indicates a minor variety distinction within the Orlamünde 5 Pfennig issues — likely a color or paper variant rather than a separate print run.
