| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a large circular vignette in full colour rendered in a medieval illuminated manuscript style, set against a decorative golden-ochre scrollwork border. The scene illustrates Erkelenz under Spanish rule in 1543, with Pastor Goswin presented as an advocate before Emperor Karl V, a Gothic town hall visible in the background amid a gathered crowd in period costume. The denomination '50' appears in black at upper left and right corners above the border. |

Erkelenz is a small Rhineland town near the Dutch border, and its 1921 notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of municipal emergency money that flooded Germany as chronic small-coin shortages persisted well into the postwar years. The Reichsbank simply could not keep fractional coinage in circulation fast enough against rampant hoarding and metal speculation.
The DeNG reference suffix structure — 1a-2/6 — indicates this is the first paper type of the series, second value, sixth known variety, suggesting Erkelenz issued multiple design states rather than a single print run. Collectors should cross-check watermark and print color carefully between varieties, as catalog distinctions here turn on those details.
