| Obverse description | The obverse is divided into three vignette panels across the upper portion, each presenting a detailed letterpress view of Düren's townscape, with the central panel showing the market square with a church steeple, tram, and pedestrians, flanked by architectural street scenes. At lower left, the municipal coat of arms of Düren — an eagle above a lion on a quartered shield, set within a laurel wreath — anchors the composition. The denomination '50 PFENNIG 50' is set in bold type across the centre, below which the issuing text and date 'DÜREN, den 1. März 1918.' appear alongside a manuscript signature above the title 'Oberbürgermeister'; the entire design is framed by a repeating 'STADT DÜREN 1918' guilloche underprint border. |
