Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse carries a large arched vignette in blue and ochre showing a bare-torso male figure bent over an open chest or crate, set against a striped interior background with a barred window above; a lizard or salamander hangs to the right, and a satchel lies on the ground to the left. The denomination "50 Pfg." appears in bold Fraktur at upper left and upper right flanking the heading "Geldnot-Notgeld". A four-line German verse in a ruled cartouche at the foot of the design alludes to fires that plagued the Schmölln-Afrika district.
Opschrift keerzijde 50 Pfg. Geldnot-Notgeld Pfg. 50
An Feuersbrünsten hatt' vor Zeiten
Schmölln-Afrika gar viel zu leiden.
Doch diesmal, wie der Rat bekannt,
Sind wir noch vielmehr abgebrannt.

Opmerkingen

Schmölln's notgeld program was among the more locally self-contained of the Thuringian issues — printed by a town printer rather than one of the major Leipzig or Berlin firms handling bulk emergency currency for hundreds of municipalities simultaneously. Göpel & Bartzsch operated within the town itself, which kept turnaround tight during the acute small-change shortage of 1921 but also meant production quality varied run to run.

Schmölln was the center of Germany's button-manufacturing industry, a detail that sometimes surfaces in the decorative imagery these notes used to market the town to collectors during the height of "serienscheine" speculation.
