| Obverse description | A central circular vignette, bordered by a decorative ring of grapevines and foliage, presents a detailed line-art view of the Weissenkirchen church and adjacent medieval tower rising above a terraced vineyard landscape along the Danube. The denomination '50 Heller' appears in bold Gothic script at lower left and lower right, flanking the vignette, with vertical ruled line panels forming the lateral borders. Below the vignette a rectangular cartouche carries the town name 'Weissenkirchen a/d. Donau', while the left margin bears the issuer inscription 'Gutschein der Markt-Gemeinde Spitz' and the right margin the validity legend 'Wachauer Notgeld / Giltig bis 30. September 1920'. |
