| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in black and ochre-yellow. The city name "Stadt Bodenwerder a.W." appears in bold Gothic blackletter script along the top margin. The central panel, framed by a dotted octagonal border with horizontal line underprint, carries the denomination inscription "Gut für Fünfzig Pfennig" in Gothic script. To each side, a vignette within a geometric octagonal frame shows a caricature figure of Baron von Münchhausen astride the numeral "50 Pf." in large ochre digits. The lower strip bears the issue date "den 1. Novbr. 1920", a serial number field, the redemption clause, and a manuscript signature over the text "Die Stadtsparkasse." |

Bodenwerder is best known as the birthplace of Karl Friedrich Hieronymus von Münchhausen, the Hanoverian officer whose embellished war stories became the basis for the fictional Baron Munchausen tales. The town's notgeld issues from 1920 predictably leaned into that association — the Stadtkasse was not shy about exploiting local mythology for a piece of emergency currency that otherwise would have attracted no attention whatsoever.
Selmar Bayer of Berlin printed a significant volume of municipal notgeld during 1919–1921, largely anonymous contract work. The note's small format was entirely typical of the denomination class.
