Beschrijving voorzijde Printed in green and black on cream paper, the obverse carries the bold gothic title 'NOTGELD' at the top, beneath which 'Kreis Stolzenau Weser' is set in large decorative lettering. A central oval vignette presents a line-drawn view of a Lower Saxon farmhouse amid trees, captioned 'Niedersächsischer Bauernhof im Kreise Stolzenau', flanked on each side by rectangular panels bearing the denomination '50 Pf' in large black numerals against a green wave underprint. The lower section carries the issuing authority, place, and date 'Stolzenau, d. 1. Mai 1921', with a facsimile signature of the chairman, all enclosed within a scalloped and geometric border.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse, printed in green and black on cream paper, centres on a humorous pen-and-ink vignette of a group of figures seated around a table in a tavern scene, rendered in an expressionist illustrative style. A curved ribbon scroll at the top bears the denomination inscription '50 Pfennig 50', while a lower ribbon cartouche carries a two-line Low German dialect motto. The composition is framed by stylised ribbon-and-scroll lateral borders and a scalloped outer edge, with the printer's imprint 'Druck August Scherl G.m.b.H. Berlin' appearing in italic lettering below the frame.

Opmerkingen

Stolzenau is a small town on the Weser in Lower Saxony, and the Kreisausschuß — the district executive committee — issuing emergency currency here in 1921 reflects how far down the administrative hierarchy Germany's postwar Kleingeldnot had reached. National coinage had effectively vanished from circulation; even a rural district council was compelled to print its own fractional notes to keep local commerce moving.

August Scherl GmbH was primarily a Berlin newspaper and publishing house — its banknote printing work during the Notgeld period was a sideline born of opportunity, with presses already suited to high-volume paper work.
