| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a large battle scene vignette executed in a fine engraved style, illustrating the Battle of Hohenfriedeberg of 4 June 1745, with masses of infantry engaged across an open plain under a radiant sun dominating the upper centre. A mounted officer on horseback occupies the foreground at right, his sword raised, while cannon smoke rises across the middle distance. The denomination numeral '50' appears twice in large mauve-tinted circular cartouches at lower left and lower right, enclosed within elaborate Art Nouveau-style foliate and scroll borders framing the entire composition. |

Hohenfriedeberg — now Dobromierz in southwestern Poland — was a Silesian market town whose name was immortalized by Frederick the Great's victory over Austrian and Saxon forces there in June 1745. The Stadtkasse issued this Notgeld during the post-WWI currency chaos, when small-denomination coinage had effectively vanished from circulation and municipalities across Germany scrambled to print their own emergency fractional notes to keep local commerce moving.
The town's Frederician association made it a minor point of Prussian pride, which likely influenced the imagery chosen for the series. Silesian Notgeld from smaller municipalities tends to survive in collector sets rather than circulated singles — many were issued speculatively for the collector trade by 1921–22.
