| Obverse description | The obverse is enclosed by a rope border running along the entire rim. At center, the crowned heraldic shield of Bremen — displaying a vertical key — is supported by two rampant lions as supporters, set upon an ornate scrollwork base. The city name 'Stadt Bremen' arcs across the upper field in Fraktur blackletter script, while the date '1920' appears in the lower field, flanked by six-pointed star ornaments. The overall design reflects the civic heraldic tradition typical of German municipal notgeld issues. |
