A panoramic townscape vignette of Bismark runs along the lower margin, with the date "1. 10. 1921" and facsimile signatures of Der Magistrat at lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Bismark in der Altmark — a small market town in the Prussian province of Saxony — issued this note during the acute coin shortage that gripped Germany in the early 1920s. Municipal and commercial bodies across the country were legally permitted to fill the gap with Kleingeldersatzscheine, small-denomination paper substitutes for coins that had disappeared from circulation due to hoarding and metal shortages following the war. The Magistrat here was one of hundreds of local authorities exercising that right.
The series is obscure precisely because Bismark was a minor issuer with limited print runs and no particular reason to produce elaborate designs.
