| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in violet and pink tones on a pale ground with a fine stippled underprint. A central vignette displays the municipal coat of arms of Otterndorf — a quartered shield incorporating a checkered field and a rampant otter — set within an ornate Art Nouveau cartouche flanked by stylised tree-trunk pilasters. The denomination '50 Pfennig' appears in bold Gothic script in framed panels at left and right, while the heading 'Gutschein der Stadt Otterndorf II/E.' runs across the top in decorative blackletter. Below the vignette, the issue date 'Otterndorf, 1. Dezember 1920' is printed alongside two manuscript signatures for Der Magistrat and Die Bürgervorsteher, with redemption clauses in smaller type at the lower corners. |

Otterndorf, seat of the Hadeln district in Lower Saxony, was a minor coastal administrative town with no particular monetary significance — which makes its Notgeld series typical of the broader 1920–1921 emergency coinage phenomenon, when coin shortages and postwar disruption pushed thousands of German municipalities into issuing their own small-denomination scrip. Johann Hinrich Meyer was a Hamburg printing house with a long regional history; they handled a substantial volume of northern German Notgeld contracts during this period.
The DeNG reference places this as the second type in the Otterndorf series, suggesting at least one earlier issue preceded it.
