| Obverse description | The note is divided into three vertical panels with a scalloped outer border. The left panel contains a Gothic-script inspirational verse in black letterpress on a cream ground. The central panel bears a bold Expressionist vignette of a male figure in close-up, clenched fist raised, set against a crumbling brick wall rendered in blue-grey and salmon tones. The right panel carries the denomination numeral '50' in large Gothic type beneath the word 'Gutschein,' with the issuing authority 'Kahla,' serial number, date '15. Okt. 1921,' two facsimile signatures above the designations 'Bürgermeister' and 'Stadtrat,' and the expiry notice 'Verfalltag 31. Dez. 1921.' |
