| Beschrijving voorzijde | A central Gothic-arched vignette presents a seated Madonna and Child figure rendered in a two-colour letterpress style against a vertically lined underprint in blue-green and peach tones. To the left, a white cartouche bears the issue year 'Ausgabe 1921' and the validity clause 'Gültig bis 1 Monat nach Aufruf'; to the right, a matching cartouche carries the issuing authority inscription 'Schmölln (Thüringen) / Der Stadtrat' accompanied by a manuscript facsimile signature. The outer border is filled with a running text listing local industries of Schmölln, and the large Gothic title 'Stadt Schmölln' spans the upper field. |

| Opmerkingen |
Schmölln, in eastern Thuringia, was one of Germany's principal centres of button manufacturing — a trade so dominant that the city styled itself the "Knopfstadt," the button capital. This notgeld issue leans hard into that identity, and C. Otter's design for Göpel & Bartzsch was printed locally, which was unusual enough in 1921 when many municipalities contracted larger Leipzig or Berlin houses for their emergency currency.
Göpel & Bartzsch operated primarily as a commercial printing firm in Schmölln rather than a specialist banknote printer, and the physical result reflects that — ink registration on some examples shows minor variance.
