| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain field bearing the large numeral '5' in the centre, indicating the denomination. A small round perforation is positioned near the top of the coin. The circular legend surrounding the field reads WOHLTÄTIGKEITS- & PFLEGEANSTALT, divided by the place name REICHEN / BACH with two Maltese cross ornaments, all within a beaded inner border. The design is utilitarian in character, consistent with institutional notgeld token coinage of the early Weimar period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Convent of the Brothers of Mercy at Reichenbach in the Upper Palatinate operated a charitable care institution — the Wohltätigkeits- und Pflegeanstalt — and issued these tokens for internal circulation among residents and staff, a practice common to closed ecclesiastical institutions that needed to manage small transactions without drawing on official currency. Such house money kept accounts tidy and discouraged hoarding of Reich coinage.
Nickel-plated zinc points to a mid-20th century issue, almost certainly wartime or immediate postwar production when base metals dominated token manufacture across Germany.
