| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse, also in Egon Tschirch's vivid Art Nouveau-influenced graphic style, centres on a full-length figure of an elegantly dressed young woman in a black bathing costume holding aloft a sweeping yellow cape, set against a stylised angular townscape in blue, red, and yellow. A curved banner at the top carries the inscription "REUTERGELD" in bold blue lettering, while the denomination "50 PFENNIG" curves in large yellow type to the right of the figure. The locality name "OSTSEEBAD MÜRITZ" appears in blue block letters across the lower border panel. |

Ostseebad Müritz was a small Baltic resort town on the Mecklenburg coast — today part of the larger municipality of Ostseebad Kühlungsborn. This note is a piece of Notgeld, the locally issued emergency currency that flooded Germany in 1921–1922 as chronic coin shortages made small-denomination transactions nearly impossible. The Badeverwaltung — the resort's administrative body overseeing spa and bathing operations — was an unusual issuing authority, but not without precedent in resort towns where tourism revenue gave the administration practical standing.
Egon Tschirch was a Rostock-based painter known for his Baltic coastal scenes, and his involvement here was entirely typical of the period's better-produced Notgeld, where local artists were commissioned to produce notes that doubled as collectible souvenirs for summer visitors.
