| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is laid out symmetrically around a central oval vignette with a beaded border, containing a full-length figure of Arminius (Hermann the Cheruscan) in armour holding a spear, set on a pedestal, with the denomination '50 Pfg.' inscribed in bold white letters at the base of the oval. The issuer name 'AMTSGEMEINDE HORN (LIPPE)' appears across the top, flanked by a series prefix letter 'C' at upper left and a serial number at upper right, while flanking text blocks on both left and right carry the redemption notice and validity date. The date 'IM JUNI 1921' and authorisation lines for the Amtsgemeinderat and Lipp. Verwaltungsamt appear at the lower portion, with two manuscript signatures below. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is entirely occupied by a large relief-style vignette rendered in brown-grey tones, reproducing a sculptural frieze that evokes the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest: a mounted armoured warrior at centre raises his hand commanding a group of Germanic warriors to the right, while to the left a figure stands beneath an arch beside kneeling captives. The composition closely references the bas-relief panels of the Hermannsdenkmal monument near Detmold. Inscriptions in archaic Germanic lettering run along the top and bottom margins of the vignette. |

Horn is a small town in the Lippe detached district, and its 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of municipal emergency currency that flooded Germany as coin shortages bit hard in the early Weimar years. The Amtsgemeinde — essentially the administrative parish — was the issuing body rather than a savings bank or chamber of commerce, which was the more common arrangement for towns of this size.
Lippe remained a Free State within the Weimar Republic until 1933, giving even minor local authorities unusual latitude in these matters. Horn's issue was short-lived by design; most Kleingeldscheine of this type were officially recalled and demonetized by late 1922 as Reichsbank policy tightened ahead of the hyperinflationary collapse.
