| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Printed in red on buff paper, the reverse carries an entirely typographic layout framed by a dotted border with small decorative panel ornaments at each corner. The heading 'Gutschein der Gemeinde Pennewang' appears in bold blackletter type at the top, followed by 'über Fünfzig Heller' in a larger gothic script. A central text block in smaller blackletter sets out the legal authorization text citing the municipal committee resolution of 23 May 1920 and the redemption terms at the community cashier. The denomination '50 Heller' is repeated in large numerals on both lateral panels, the date 'Pennewang, 22. Mai 1920' appears at the lower left, and the signature of the mayor 'Josef Humer, Bürgermeister' is printed at the lower right. |

Pennewang is a small rural commune in the Wels-Land district, and its decision to issue emergency money in 1920 placed it among hundreds of Austrian municipalities scrambling to fill the coin vacuum left by wartime metal shortages and postwar monetary chaos. The Austrian Notgeld phenomenon peaked between 1919 and 1921, when the central government's inability to produce sufficient small-denomination coinage pushed the burden onto local authorities — many of whom had no experience administering a currency issue of any kind.
Josef Humer's signature as issuing official is the only human anchor this note has to a specific administrative moment in a commune that today has a population under a thousand.
