| Beschrijving keerzijde | Octagonal reverse displaying the large numeral '5' at center, framed by a twisted rope or cable inner border, itself surrounded by a beaded outer circle following the octagonal periphery. The legend KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE (small change substitute token) arcs around the upper portion of the field, while three six-pointed stars are evenly spaced at the lower margin, serving as decorative separators. The overall design reflects the standardized, functional aesthetic of German Kriegsgeld (war emergency coinage) of 1917. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kelbra issued this zinc notgeld piece in 1917 as German municipal authorities scrambled to plug the coin shortage created by wartime metal requisitioning — copper and nickel had been pulled from circulation to feed the war industry, leaving small-denomination transactions effectively paralyzed in towns too small to absorb the disruption through barter or paper. Zinc, largely useless for armaments, became the default substitute.
Kelbra am Kyffhäuser was a minor administrative center with no mint tradition whatsoever; pieces like this were typically contracted to regional printing or metalworking firms, which accounts for the variation in strike quality seen across the Funck-catalogued series.
