Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse, also printed in dark red on cream paper, presents a central vignette of a horse-drawn manual fire pump of nineteenth-century type, signed R. Ladewig in the lower right of the vignette field. Three heraldic shield vignettes are arranged vertically on each lateral border, bearing local emblems including a tree, a building, and a conifer. The dates 1869 and 1919 appear in the upper corners, and a commemorative text panel below the vignette records the 50th anniversary of the Waldenburg Volunteer Fire Brigade; the notation AUSGABE B appears at the lower right corner.

Opmerkingen

Waldenburg in Schlesien — now Wałbrzych in southwestern Poland — was a coal-mining town whose local currency needs during the Weimar-era inflation prompted a substantial series of Notgeld issues. This 50 Pfennig note, designed by R. Ladewig, belongs to that wave of municipal emergency money that flooded Germany between 1919 and 1922, often produced with more artistic ambition than the central bank could muster at the time.

The printed date of 30 April 1945 is almost certainly a catalog or documentation anomaly — that date is the day Berlin fell and Hitler died, by which point Waldenburg itself was days from Soviet occupation. No municipal magistrat was issuing 1920-series Pfennig notes that week.
