| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Cream-toned note with an elaborate green Art Nouveau foliate border enclosing a central vignette of a bishop in full vestments reading from an open book, set against the blue municipal coat of arms of Bordesholm. The denomination "Fünfzig Pfennig" is rendered in large Gothic blackletter flanking the vignette, while a decorative scroll cartouche below carries the issuer inscription in red and black letterpress. The date of issue and validity clause appear along the lower margin in Gothic script, accompanied by a facsimile signature of the Gemeindevorsteher. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Olive, teal, and ochre composition with two shield-shaped cartouches at left and right bearing the interlaced monogram "50 Pf" in white on a teal ground. The central vignette, signed "Holtz" at lower right, depicts a group of robed monks gathered beneath a large tree in an autumnal landscape, one seated and reading while others converse — an allusion to the Augustinian monastery founded at Bordesholm in 1326. The Latin motto "ORA ET LABORA 1326" is inscribed across the upper panel, and the issuer legend "NOTGELD DER GEMEINDE BORDESHOLM" runs along the lower teal band in bold sans-serif lettering. |

Bordesholm is a small town in Schleswig-Holstein whose municipal notgeld issues of 1921 were produced during the peak of Germany's small-change crisis, when coin shortages and runaway inflation had pushed hundreds of municipalities into emergency paper currency. Aug. Westphalen was a Flensburg commercial printer — not a specialist security house — which is typical of the more provincial notgeld runs, where local printers took on public contracts out of sheer necessity.
The DeNG reference indicates four known varieties within this 50 Pfennig series, suggesting the municipality issued multiple dated or textual variants across a short window.
