| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a standing armored figure, likely a knight or civic guardian, depicted in three-quarter view holding a staff or weapon, standing upon a decorative base or plinth. The date 1917 is inscribed in the field, flanked to either side of the central figure. A circular legend reading MAGISTRAT DER STADT BELGERN surrounds the design along the periphery, separated from the rim by a continuous border of raised beads following the octagonal contour of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Belgern is a small town on the Elbe in Saxony, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1917, its local magistrate was forced into emergency currency production when the Imperial government's wartime metal requisitions drained iron, copper, and nickel from everyday commerce. This iron notgeld exists because the Reichsbank could not keep small denomination coinage in circulation — hoarding and metal collection for armaments had made even pfennig pieces effectively vanish from trade.
Iron notgeld from this period corrodes readily, and undamaged examples are harder to find than the original mintage figures suggest.
