| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in brown on a light guilloche underprint, with a decorative dot-and-dash border framing the entire note. The upper register presents a large blue numeral '50' with the denomination 'Pfennig' below it, flanked on each side by square vignettes enclosing an Iron Cross wreathed in oak leaves. The lower register bears the issuer's name in Gothic blackletter script, the municipal coat of arms at centre, the date of issue and validity clause, a serial number, and two manuscript signatures above the printed titles 'Regierungsrat' and 'Oberamtspfleger'. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a large woodcut-style agricultural vignette occupying most of the field, showing two oxen drawing a plough guided by a woman in traditional Swabian peasant dress, with a village church and open countryside in the background; the artist's monogram 'W.K.' appears in the lower left of the scene. The denomination '50 Pfg.' is set in bold Gothic numerals in the upper right, with the heading 'Kriegsnotgeld' to its left. At the foot of the note the issuer's name appears in decorative blue Gothic script, with the printer's imprint in small letterpress type along the bottom margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Horb am Neckar is a small Württemberg town on the upper Neckar, and this 1918 Pfennig-denomination Notgeld is exactly what the wartime small-change crisis produced across hundreds of German municipalities that year. Metal coinage had effectively vanished from circulation by 1917 — hoarded, melted, or requisitioned — leaving local authorities scrambling to fill the gap with whatever printer was available. Uhlandsche Buchdruckerei in Stuttgart was a reliable regional commercial press, not a security printer, which is why these notes were never difficult to counterfeit in principle.
