| Obverse lettering | Kriegsgeld der Stadt Sigmaringen / 50 Pfennig / Dieser Schein wird bei der Stadtkasse eingelöst. Der Zeitpunkt mit dem die Gültigkeit abläuft, wird öffentlich bekannt gemacht werden. / Der Gemeindevorstand / f. d. / Der Bürgermeister / Sigmaringen, den 1. Sept. 1918 |
| Reverse description | A richly composed allegorical vignette in letterpress occupies the full face of the note, centred on the Sigmaringen city coat of arms — an oval cartouche bearing a chamois — inscribed 'KRIEGSGELD DER STADT SIGMARINGEN'. To the left, a jester or fool figure sits slumped on the ground before a townscape with a memorial column, while to the right a uniformed soldier stands at rest with a rifle, with a second recumbent figure at his feet. A light guilloche underprint with repeated '50' numerals fills the background, and the denomination '50' appears in large white-outlined numerals in each upper corner. |
