| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the large numeral '5' prominently in the centre of the field, serving as the denomination indicator. A circular legend arcs around the periphery, reading KRIEGSMÜNZE in the upper arc and PFENNIG in the lower arc, each separated by five-pointed star stops. The term KRIEGSMÜNZE, meaning 'war coin,' identifies this piece as wartime emergency currency issued due to the acute shortage of coinage metals during World War I. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse, giving the piece a unified, utilitarian appearance typical of German Notgeld coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Neu-Ulm's 1917 zinc notgeld emerged from the same wartime metal shortage that stripped German municipalities of their copper and nickel coinage — both metals had been systematically redirected to munitions production by 1916. Zinc was the reluctant substitute across hundreds of German cities simultaneously, resulting in a fragile, corrosion-prone coinage that the issuing authorities fully expected to withdraw once the war ended.
Neu-Ulm's position directly across the Danube from Ulm — a Württemberg city in a separate state — created genuine administrative friction over local currency acceptance that purely urban issuers never faced.
