| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in dark green on a light green tint and divided into three vertical panels. The central panel carries a line-art vignette of the Frankenmarkt parish church with its characteristic onion-domed tower, flanked by townhouse facades and bare winter trees; the artist's name WILHELM appears in small lettering below the vignette. The two flanking panels each bear the denomination numeral 50 within a rectangular frame above the word HELLER, with FÜNFZIG above; the issuing authority inscription runs across the full top border, and facsimile signatures of the Bürgermeister and Gemeinderat appear at the foot of their respective panels. |

| Opmerkingen |
Frankenmarkt is a small market town in Upper Austria, and this 50 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities after the First World War. The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monetary system left local communities starved of small change, forcing hundreds of towns — including minor ones like Frankenmarkt — to print their own emergency issues. Most circulated only within the issuing commune and were recalled within months.
The designer credit "Wilhelm" without a surname is typical of smaller Notgeld commissions, where local artists or printers' draftsmen rarely received full attribution.
