| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in dark carmine-red on a light blue-grey guilloche underprint composed of scrollwork and chain-link border ornaments. The large numeral '50' dominates the centre, flanked symmetrically by two stylised Bavarian folk-art boot vignettes decorated with floral and dot motifs, with edelweiss blossoms above each. The issuer's title runs along the top in ornate Gothic script, with the date 'Gemeinderaf Ruhpolding, 5. April 1921' and two facsimile signature lines for the '1. Bürgermeister' and 'Kassenverwalter' at the foot. |

| Opmerkingen |
Ruhpolding's 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the second wave of German municipal emergency currency — the so-called "Serienscheine" period, when local authorities across Bavaria and beyond were effectively printing collectible sets as much as functional money. The Gemeinderat had no printing mandate in any central-bank sense; the legal basis rested on the chronic small-denomination coin shortage that persisted well into the early Weimar years, giving municipalities political cover to issue.
Ruhpolding was a small Alpine resort community with no significant industrial or financial infrastructure. That it issued at all reflects how thoroughly the coin shortage penetrated even minor Bavarian localities by 1921.
