| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a full-width landscape vignette executed in fine black line engraving on a cream ground, presenting a panoramic townscape of Eckartsberga in Thuringia with the medieval Eckartsburg castle ruins visible on the hilltop above the densely packed rooftops and church steeples of the town. The same teal-and-black scalloped guilloche border from the obverse frames the design, with "50" repeated in the four corner cartouches. A caption in Roman type at the upper centre of the vignette reads "Eckartsberga i. Thür. mit Eckartsburg." |

Eckartsberga is a small town in Saxony-Anhalt, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1920–21, it issued Notgeld to plug the gap left by a chronic shortage of small-denomination Reichsmark coinage. The Weimar government was struggling with postwar inflation and could not mint fast enough to meet demand. Local printers filled the void, and civic pride — sometimes outright competitiveness between towns — drove increasingly elaborate designs.
Eckartsberga's issue is unremarkable as Notgeld goes, a minor civic emission with limited regional distribution and no documented printing anomalies. Collectors pursuing complete Saxony-Anhalt Notgeld sets need it; otherwise it moves as a type piece.
