| Beschrijving voorzijde | The upper portion carries a bold decorative header in black with white Gothic lettering reading 'Gutschein des Luftkurorts' above the large town name 'Fürstenberg in Meckl.' Centre field bears the municipal coat of arms on a red shield — a crowned eagle displayed — flanked by two scrolling ribbon banners with Low German dialect text. The lower section is divided into three panels: at left, the redemption conditions in Gothic script; at centre, a large denomination numeral '50' with 'Pfennig' beneath on a dark guilloche ground; and at right, the issue date '1. August 1921' above two manuscript facsimile signatures under the rubric 'Der Rat:'. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a large central vignette in pen-and-ink style with light watercolour wash, illustrating a lively winter sledging and skiing scene on a snow-covered hillside with figures in period dress amid a pine forest backdrop. Flanking the vignette at upper left and upper right are matching red-on-black denomination cartouches reading '50 Pf'. At lower left and lower right are ornamental star rosettes, and a caption panel across the bottom carries a Low German couplet in Gothic script. |

| Opmerkingen |
Fürstenberg an der Havel issued a substantial volume of Notgeld in the early 1920s as the Reichsbank's chronic coin shortage forced municipalities across Germany to print their own fractional currency. These Stadt-issued 50 Pfennig notes were legal only within the issuing town and its immediate commercial sphere — a grocer in Berlin would have turned one down without hesitation.
The 1921 dating places this squarely in the transitional phase between the wartime emergency issues and the hyperinflationary collapse that rendered all such notes worthless within two years.
