| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in green, black, and red on a pale ground. A central rectangular vignette presents a detailed letterpress view of Eutin Schloss (castle), labelled 'Schloss' above the image. Flanking vertical panels carry the Eutin city arms in octagonal cartouches, with the denomination 'Pfennig' inscribed below each. Vertical garlands of red roses with green foliage separate the side panels from the central vignette, and the place name 'EUTIN' is set in large sans-serif capitals along the lower margin. |

Eutin's 50 Pfennig Notgeld from 1920 is unexceptional as a type — thousands of German municipalities issued small-denomination emergency paper during the chronic coin shortage that followed the First World War. What makes this particular entry worth a second look is the printed date of 30 April 1945, which is almost certainly a cataloging or typographical error: that date falls at the absolute end of the Third Reich, a moment when the Magistrat der Stadt Eutin had considerably more pressing concerns than reprinting Weimar-era Notgeld.
