| Obverse description | The obverse features the large numeral '50' prominently displayed in the centre of the field, rendered in a bold, slightly incuse style. Surrounding the denomination, the circular legend 'Stadt Altenburg' arcs across the upper portion and 'Pfennig' curves along the lower portion, both inscribed in Fraktur blackletter script. Two small rosette ornaments flank the word 'Pfennig' as decorative separators. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border that follows the coin's circumference, reflecting the Notgeld artistic conventions of the Weimar-era emergency coinage. |
