| Beschrijving voorzijde | The municipal arms of Ratibor occupy the centre of the field, rendered as a quartered heraldic shield surmounted by an elaborate mantled helm with scrolling acanthus crest. The escutcheon displays the traditional charges of the city in low relief. The curved legend STADT- RATIBOR is inscribed along the lower arc of the coin, flanking the shield to the left and right respectively, in plain raised Latin lettering. The overall design is austere and utilitarian, consistent with Notgeld emergency coinage of the Weimar period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ratibor's 1919 iron notgeld issue belongs to the chaotic immediate postwar period when German municipal authorities scrambled to fill a vacuum left by acute small-denomination coin shortages. The imperial coinage system had effectively collapsed, and cities across Silesia — a region simultaneously dealing with postwar border uncertainty and the approaching plebiscite that would eventually partition the territory between Germany and Poland in 1921 — issued their own emergency pieces with minimal central oversight.
Iron was the default material by necessity, not choice; copper and nickel remained restricted from civilian coinage well into 1919.
