| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse of this Notgeld note is dominated by a large central circular vignette at the top, rendered in colour, showing a medieval castle or city gate with a cross-bearing shield above it, framed by decorative grapevine branches with clusters of grapes extending symmetrically to either side — a direct reference to the Saar wine region. The denomination '50 PFENNIG' is printed in bold black letterpress typeface in the centre of the note, with corner medallions bearing the numeral '50' and a green oak-leaf and vine border running along all four edges. The lower portion carries a three-line redemption clause in German gothic script, the place and date of issue 'LUFTKURORT-SAARBURG, den 1. Juli 1920', and a facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister to the right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Saarburg's 50 Pfennig Notgeld from 1920 was issued by the city treasury at a moment when the town itself sat in contested political geography — the Rhineland had been under Allied occupation since late 1918, and the Saar territory to the south was simultaneously being carved into a League of Nations protectorate. Local municipalities across the region issued their own small-denomination emergency money because the Reichsbank simply could not keep fractional coinage in circulation reliably, hoarding being epidemic across western Germany throughout this period.
Schaar & Dathe of Trier were a regional workhorse printer, handling a considerable volume of Rhineland Notgeld during these years. The Treitz signature is that of the presiding municipal official responsible for authorizing the issue.
