| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is printed in green, tan, and blue tones, with a scalloped dot border framing the entire note. At centre, the municipal coat of arms of Gräfenthal is displayed within a hexagonal cartouche surrounded by elaborate baroque scrollwork and foliage; a crowned female figure surmounts the shield, which bears a lion passant in the lower field. The denomination "50 PFENNIG" appears twice in circular wreath medallions flanking the central vignette, with a radiating sunburst underprint beneath, and the inscriptions "Notgeld 1921" and "Stadt Gräfenthal Th.W." at upper left and upper right respectively. |

| Anmerkungen |
Gräfenthal is a small slate-quarrying town in the Thuringian highlands, and its 1921 Notgeld issue reflects the chronic small-change shortage that paralyzed German commerce during the early Weimar years. The Reichsbank's inability to produce sufficient low-denomination coinage after the war forced thousands of municipalities — many far smaller than Gräfenthal — to print their own emergency scrip, creating a patchwork currency system that the central government tolerated largely because it had no practical alternative.
The DeNG reference suffix distinctions (1a versus 2) typically indicate paper stock or overprint variants within the same base printing run rather than separate design issues.
