| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is a richly coloured lithographic composition in three panels. The central vignette, signed by W. Dockhorn, presents a pastoral landscape identified as a Germanic settlement on the edge of a marshy lake district circa 1000 BC ('Germanische Siedlung am Rande des sumpfartigen Seegebiets (1000 vor Chr.)'), with cattle grazing before a thatched farmstead beneath oak trees, all surmounted by a banner reading 'Frô-Herr Sêo-See' and a bull's skull. The left panel shows a hunter returning from the chase ('Heimkehr von der Jagd') rendered in folk-art style, while the right panel illustrates Bronze Age archaeological finds ('Funde aus der Bronzezeit') including a spear, a dagger, and a ceramic vessel. Denomination numerals '50' appear in red at the upper corners. |

Frose is a small village in the Anhalt region, and like hundreds of similarly obscure German municipalities, it issued its own emergency small-change notes — Kleingeldscheine — during the acute coin shortage that followed the First World War. The Reichsbank had effectively stopped supplying low-denomination coinage by 1920, leaving local authorities to fill the gap themselves. Louis Koch in Halberstadt was a regional printer who handled dozens of these commissions across the surrounding area, which gives the series a certain typographic consistency with other Anhalt-area notgeld.
W. Dockhorn's designer credit is unusual enough to be worth noting — most small municipal issues of this type went unattributed.
