Vertical columns of Gothic blackletter text flank the central illustration on both left and right margins. The overall design is printed in the same blue-on-dark two-colour scheme as the obverse. |

Erfurt's municipal authorities issued notgeld throughout the inflationary spiral of the early 1920s, and this 50 Pfennig piece is typical of the administrative patchwork that emerged when Reichsbank coin and small notes dried up entirely. What's worth noting here is the dual-printer attribution — Alfred Hanf and Otto Richters & Co. both operated out of Erfurt, and the two variants (catalogued as .3/4 and .5) likely reflect sequential press runs as demand outpaced any single shop's capacity.
The watermark security feature is slightly unusual for municipal notgeld of this denomination, where such precautions were often omitted as an unnecessary expense on what was effectively emergency scrip with a short intended lifespan.
