Reverse description The reverse centres on a vignette of the Raguhn Rathaus (town hall), built in 1716, rendered in a flat illustrative style with figures in period costume flanking the building on each side, each pair holding a heraldic shield bearing the denomination '50 Pfg'. Two rhyming couplets in Gothic script run across the top and bottom borders, lending the note its characteristic Notgeld narrative character. The composition is printed in dark blue-black and terracotta on plain paper.
Reverse lettering Wer eintrat einst in dieses Haus,
Kam, wie man sagt, stets klug heraus;
RATHAUS · ERBAUT · 1716
Jetzt ist das Rathaus schmuck u. fein,
Doch geht, wer klug ist, auch nicht 'nein.
