| Beschrijving keerzijde | A panoramic vignette of the village of Wippenham occupies the upper portion of the note, printed in a light ochre-gold tone. The central text block, set in a combination of Roman and Fraktur typefaces, states the issuing authority, the municipal council resolution date of 6 June 1920, the denomination in large Gothic script, the redemption terms, and a counterfeiting prohibition. Circular guilloche medallions at each corner and lateral panels bear the word 'Heller' and the numeral '50' in green, while the place name 'Wippenham' appears in large Gothic script along the lower border as an underprint. |

| Opmerkingen |
Wippenham is a small rural commune in Upper Austria, and this note is a product of the acute coin shortage that plagued Austria in the immediate postwar years. Between roughly 1919 and 1922, hundreds of Austrian municipalities — many of them villages of no particular economic weight — issued their own Notgeld in heller denominations precisely because the central monetary system could not supply enough small change for everyday transactions.
The two signatures, Frz. Reisegger and E. Zeilinger, almost certainly represent local municipal officials rather than banking personnel. Wippenham's issues are among the more obscure in the Upper Austrian Notgeld corpus.
