Beschrijving voorzijde The central field carries a large medallion-style vignette of St. Vitus (Sanctus Veit) in full figure, rendered in black letterpress against a red floral guilloche underprint extending along both lateral margins, with bold red Gothic '50' numerals at left and right. The upper portion bears a two-column medieval German text in black and red Fraktur typeface referencing the Höxter-Corvey St. Vitus Festival of 15 June, while the lower panel presents the issuer inscription 'Stadt Höxter' in large black Gothic lettering flanking a red-framed 'Notgeld' cartouche. Below, redemption conditions and the date '3. Mai 1921' appear in smaller Gothic type, accompanied by a manuscript signature of the Magistrat.

Opmerkingen

Höxter, on the Weser in Westphalia, issued this Notgeld piece during the acute small-change shortage that gripped German municipalities in the early 1920s — federal coinage had effectively vanished from circulation as metal values outpaced face values and hoarding took hold. J. C. König & Ebhardt of Hannover were among the more prolific printers of municipal emergency currency during this period, producing runs for dozens of towns across Lower Saxony and beyond.

The K. A. Held design credit is atypical for Höxter's issues — most comparable city Notgeld of this scale used in-house or stock compositions. Worth noting for collectors working the König & Ebhardt production line.
