| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a polychrome vignette set against a sandy-brown ground, framed by a decorative border of stylised green leaf-and-reed motifs with red cross elements at the corners. At left, a detailed letterpress view of the Methfessel-Denkmal — an obelisk monument enclosed by iron railings and surrounded by trees — is captioned 'METHFESSEL-DENKMAL' along the lower edge. To the upper left, a lyre within a laurel wreath appears as a symbolic vignette. At right, a dark oval medallion bears the silhouette portrait of Albert Methfessel (1785–1869), with his name and birth and death years inscribed below. A ribbon scroll at upper right carries a patriotic verse quotation, and a partially unfurled scroll at centre displays the denomination numeral '5'. The printer's imprint appears in small capitals along the bottom margin. |

Stadtilm is a small town in Thuringia with a population that barely registered four figures in 1921, which makes its participation in the Kleingeldersatz wave entirely typical of the period — Germany's chronic small-change shortage following the First World War drove even the most modest municipalities to commission their own emergency Pfennig notes. The Wiedemannsche Druckerei AG in Saalfeld handled a significant volume of Thuringian Notgeld work during this period, supplying nearby communities that lacked access to larger printing houses.
At five Pfennig, this is among the lowest denominations issued — functionally a substitute for a coin that had simply vanished from circulation into hoarding and metal salvage.
