| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in dark blue-black with a warm salmon-pink underprint. The denomination '50 Pfennig' is rendered in large ornate script at the upper left. The central vignette presents a pastoral scene of the town of Neukalen, with the Gothic church tower rising prominently behind thatched-roof farm buildings and trees; in the foreground, two white cattle graze while a milkmaid in traditional dress tends to them. The lower register carries the inscriptions 'REUTER GELD' in bold block letters and 'NEUKALEN' in large capitals, identifying this note as part of the locally issued Reuter commemorative series. |

| Anmerkungen |
Neukalen is a small market town in Mecklenburg, and its 1922 notgeld issue belongs to the second wave of German municipal emergency money — the inflationary series issued by local authorities when Reichsbank coin and small-denomination notes simply stopped circulating due to hoarding and metal shortages. The Rat der Stadt, the town council, had direct authority to authorize these issues without central approval, which is why thousands of distinct German municipal types exist from this period.
Neukalen's series is not among the widely documented "collector-bait" notgeld designed purely for the philatelic trade, which had become a significant problem by 1922 — many small issuers printed elaborate pictorial sets with no intention of genuine circulation.
