| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a large central vignette rendered in an expressive pen-and-ink style, set within a trompe-l'œil scroll cartouche. The scene depicts the Oppurg village church, built in 1694, viewed through a stone arched gateway, with bare-branched trees in the foreground against a swirling orange sky. A decorative scroll at the left carries the inscription 'Kirche Erb. 1694' in ornamental Gothic script. The artist's signature 'H.W. Schulz' appears in the upper right corner of the composition. |

Oppurg is a small village in the Orla valley, and its 1921 notgeld issue is entirely typical of the Thuringian municipal scrip flood of that period — unremarkable in origin. What complicates this note is the printed date of 30 April 1945, which is either a catalog error or a misread of the original printing date stamped on surviving stock. No German municipality was issuing new currency obligations on the day Hitler died and Soviet forces completed the encirclement of Berlin.
The designer credit to H.W. Schulz appears across several Thuringian notgeld issues from 1921, though nothing is firmly documented about the individual.
