| Obverse description | Multicolour Notgeld vignette printed in black, orange, and ochre tones, with a large central scene referencing the Thirty Years' War (30jähr. Krieg): a tumultuous crowd of period-costumed figures in flight amid flames and smoke, rendered in an expressive woodcut-like style. The denomination '50 Pfennig' appears in large Gothic blackletter at lower left, with the issuing authority inscription in Gothic script along the top border. A central cartouche at the bottom bears the place name 'Gross-Flottbek', the issue date '1. Aug. 1921', the validity limit 'Gültig bis 1. Sept. 1921', and a manuscript facsimile signature of the Gemeindevorsteher (municipal head). |
