| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a single full-width woodcut-style vignette in dark grey-black and ochre, showing a panoramic view of the town of Kreuzburg with its characteristic tower rising above a cluster of rooftops and fields; a peasant with a plough stands to the left and a second figure with a sickle to the right, framing the townscape. The denomination '50 Pf.' appears in ochre at lower left and right. A patriotic inscription in Gothic script runs across the lower portion of the vignette, and the registered design number 'D.R.G.M. 795679' is printed below the frame at the foot of the note. |

| Opmerkingen |
Kreuzburg — now Kluczbork in western Poland — was a mid-sized Upper Silesian town caught directly in the plebiscite crisis of 1921. The city issued this Notgeld in the months surrounding the March 20th vote, when currency shortages and political uncertainty made locally printed small-change notes a practical necessity across the region. The outcome of that plebiscite, and the subsequent partition decision by the League of Nations in October, would eventually place the town firmly within German borders — but that was far from obvious when these notes were being signed and distributed.
Carl Flemming & T. C. Wiskott in Glogau were among the more prolific Silesian Notgeld printers of the period.
