| Reverse description | The reverse features a centrally placed salt barrel in low relief, a reference to the historic salt trade of the Rupertiwinkel region of Bavaria for which Laufen was a significant hub. The barrel is depicted with characteristic stave-and-hoop construction and occupies the majority of the field. A circular legend surrounds the central device, reading 'NOTGELD DES RUPERTIWINKELS' with a small circular ornament serving as a stop, the text following the coin's rim. The design evokes the region's economic heritage and serves as a local emblem for this emergency issue. |
