| Aversbeschreibung | The obverse features the municipal coat of arms of Landeshut in Silesia centrally displayed, a quartered shield depicting a fortified city gate with towers on the dexter side and an armoured knight standing at guard on the sinister side. The arms are rendered in fine relief against a plain field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the device, reading MAGISTRAT DER STADT LANDESHUT I/SCHL., with a star ornament completing the inscription. The design is enclosed by a raised pearl border running along the inner edge of the rim. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents the numeral '5' in large bold relief at the centre of the field, enclosed within a raised twisted rope circle serving as an inner border. The circular legend KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE, denoting this token's status as a small-change substitute piece, runs along the outer margin between the rope border and the pearl rim. Three star ornaments are evenly spaced at the base of the legend, serving as decorative separators. The overall design is plain and functional, consistent with the utilitarian character of World War I German notgeld coinage. |

Landeshut (now Kamienna Góra, Poland) issued this zinc notgeld piece in 1917 under the same wartime pressures that drove hundreds of German municipalities to produce their own emergency coinage — the Imperial government had requisitioned copper and nickel for the war effort, leaving small-denomination circulation effectively paralyzed. The Magistrat stepped in to fill the gap, as local authorities across Silesia were legally permitted to do under emergency provisions.
Zinc was the compromise metal of the German home front: cheap, available, but prone to corrosion. Surviving examples in clean condition are the minority.
