| Beschrijving voorzijde | Outer pearl border follows the octagonal flan, enclosing a circular pearl ring within which the municipal coat of arms is centered in the field, depicting a displayed eagle above two crossed keys on a quartered shield. The circular legend runs between the pearl ring and the outer border, reading GEMEINDE-VERWALTUNG at the top and AGATHARIED 1917 at the bottom, each segment flanked by a six-pointed star. The overall design is rendered in low relief on a plain field typical of wartime notgeld coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Outer pearl border follows the octagonal flan, enclosing a plain field in which the legend KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE arcs across the upper portion. A rope or cable circle is centered in the field, within which the large numeral 5 denoting the denomination is prominently displayed. Three six-pointed stars are arranged below the cable circle at the lower portion of the field, serving as decorative stops. The composition is characteristic of World War I German municipal emergency coinage. |

Agatharied is a small village in Upper Bavaria — barely a hamlet by most measures — yet by 1917 the German wartime metal shortage had forced even communities of this scale to issue their own emergency coinage. The Imperial government had requisitioned copper and nickel for munitions production, collapsing the supply of small-denomination coins and pushing hundreds of municipalities to fill the gap with zinc, iron, or pressed cardboard tokens. This piece is among the more obscure of those local issues, catalogued under three separate reference systems precisely because Notgeld scholarship has never fully consolidated.
