| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in orange-brown and green on paper with an intricate guilloche underprint, the face centres on the denomination numeral '50' flanked by two lateral guilloche panels on either side of a central oval vignette. The issuer's name 'Stadt Breslau' appears in Gothic script at upper left, with a red serial letter and number at upper right. The body text, set in Gothic script, conveys the payment obligation and validity clause, followed by two manuscript signatures beneath the magistrate's title, with the printer's imprint in small type at the lower margin and a decorative geometric border with rosette corner ornaments framing the entire face. |

| Opmerkingen |
Breslau issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — during the severe coin shortage that followed Germany's defeat in World War I. The city's municipal administration became one of hundreds of German local authorities forced to self-finance small-denomination scrip simply because Reichsbank coins had vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted. Grass, Barth & Comp., operating under the W. Friedrich imprint, was a well-established Breslau printing house and a natural choice for the contract.
The watermarked paper is worth noting — most Kleingeldscheine of this period dispensed with security features entirely. Its inclusion here was likely a deliberate civic signal, distinguishing municipal paper from the flimsier private-issue Notgeld flooding the same market.
