| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is set within a dark sawtooth-pattern border framing a central vignette on a light blue guilloche ground. To the left, an ornate Jugendstil initial letter 'S' rendered in gold and blue is entwined with scrolling foliage, wheat ears, and rose tendrils; above and to the right, a flowing ribbon banner in blue and gold sweeps across the upper field. The issuer's name 'Marktgemeinde Stammbach' is inscribed in large Gothic blackletter script, below which a cursive text clause states the note loses validity one month after public notice by the town council, dated 'Stammbach 1. Sept. 1921' with a facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister. The printer's imprint 'DRUCK VON J P HIMMER AUGSBURG' appears at the base below the border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a large oval vignette in the Jugendstil manner, bordered by a continuous wreath of boldly rendered golden roses against a dark stippled ground. Within the oval, a seated female figure in a white dress holds a sheaf of wheat at the centre-right of a pastoral landscape, with tall golden grain stalks rising to the left and a blue sky with clouds above; a birch tree is visible at the upper right. The composition is executed in a polychrome letterpress style with ochre, blue, green, and black tones, with no denomination or text inscription on this face. |

Stammbach is a small market town in Upper Franconia, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1921, it issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — to compensate for the catastrophic coin shortage that followed the First World War. The Reichsbank simply could not produce enough small-denomination coinage to meet daily transactional needs, and local authorities filled the gap themselves.
J. P. Himmer in Augsburg was one of the more prolific printers of Bavarian municipal Notgeld, handling commissions from dozens of small towns across the region. The reference number P#1252.3-2/4 suggests this is one of several distinct types within the Stammbach issue — common for towns that released multiple design variants across a single emission.
