| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries two large colour vignettes separated by a central medallion. The left scene, captioned "Karl August auf der Jagd im Rodaer Wald," shows Duke Karl August hunting in a conifer forest; the right scene, captioned "Goethe besucht ein Rodaer Bergwerk," portrays Goethe visiting a local mine with workers and a ore cart. The central medallion reproduces an old Taler coin struck from Rodaer silver, displaying a capercaillie. The denomination "50 PFENNIG" appears in bold frames at upper left and upper right, and two verse quatrains in Gothic script fill the lower panel. The printer's imprint and the designer credit "gez. Max Bechstein, Ilmenau, Thün" appear at the foot. |

Roda bei Ilmenau was a small Thuringian commune whose notgeld issue was designed by Max Bechstein of Ilmenau — almost certainly a local commercial artist rather than the more famous painter Max Beckmann, despite the superficial similarity of names. The printer, Wiedemannsche Druckerei AG in Saalfeld, handled notgeld contracts for numerous Thuringian municipalities during the 1921 small-change shortage, when coin hoarding and metal scarcity left ordinary transactions nearly impossible.
The single known signature variant, attributed to a "Hertzer," suggests limited administrative complexity in the issuing authority — consistent with a rural commune managing a modest, short-lived emission.
