| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Cream and red Notgeld note with a decorative Gothic script denomination 'Fünfzig Mark' across the upper register. The central vignette, set within a diamond-shaped frame flanked by two large circular numeral medallions reading '50 M', presents a full-length figure of Reinold der Ritter (Roland the Knight) in armour, mace raised, against a stylised Dortmund cityscape with church spires. Below the vignette an italic caption reads 'Io so nos Dioron'; the lower portion carries the issue text naming the municipal and district cashiers of Dortmund and Hörde, the date 'Dortmund, am 10. Oktober 1922', and two manuscript signatures below the seal of the Stadt Dortmund. Marginal text runs along all four borders citing the authorising Reichsgesetz. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in deep red and black on a cream guilloche underprint of interlocking wave patterns. A central rectangular vignette, signed 'Landwehrmann', shows three striding workers — a carpenter, a smith, and a miner — rendered in a bold Expressionist woodcut style, with a crossed-hammer mining symbol at right. The vignette is flanked by two ornamental circular medallions incorporating stylised denomination numerals and Westphalian motifs. Flowing ribbon banners curve around all four sides of the composition, carrying a verse text in Gothic script; the printer's imprint 'West-Werbe-Dienst Dortmund' appears at the lower centre margin. |

| Anmerkungen |
Dortmund's municipal administration issued this note under the emergency currency laws that effectively deputized German cities and counties as temporary monetary authorities during the hyperinflationary spiral of the early 1920s. The dual designation covering both Dortmund and the adjacent Landkreis Hörde reflects a coordinating arrangement between the Stadtkreis and its surrounding rural district — an administrative pairing that would become permanent when Hörde was formally incorporated into greater Dortmund in 1928.
West-Werbe-Dienst was a commercial advertising and print firm, not a security printer. The designer credit to Landwehrmann — almost certainly a reservist militia figure rather than a professional graphic artist — points to the improvisational nature of the whole enterprise.
