| Beschrijving voorzijde | An outer pearl border frames the coin, with the circumferential Latin legend reading MAGISTRAT DER STADT BISCHOFSBURG flanked by two six-pointed stars and the date 1918. An inner beaded circle encloses the central device, which depicts a civic building surmounted by a bishop's mitre, with the municipal coat of arms displayed prominently in the foreground. The design conveys the civic and ecclesiastical heritage of the city of Bischofsburg in a straightforward emergency-issue style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bischofsburg — known today as Biskupiec in northeastern Poland — issued this iron notgeld piece in 1918 as the German imperial supply chain collapsed under wartime metal requisitions. Copper and nickel had been systematically stripped for munitions production since 1915, forcing hundreds of small municipalities to strike emergency coinage in whatever base material remained locally available. Iron was the default of last resort.
The Funck 42.1 attribution places this among the earliest documented issues for the town.
