Beschrijving voorzijde The octagonal field features a centrally placed heraldic shield depicting the Elmshorn town arms, showing a crenellated castle tower above a sailing vessel, rendered in low relief. A continuous circular legend reading KREDIT-VEREIN ZU ELMSHORN encircles the coat of arms, separated from the edge by a prominent pearl border that follows the full octagonal perimeter. A small rosette ornament appears at the base of the legend, serving as a punctuation device. The overall design is utilitarian in character, consistent with the Notgeld emergency coinage aesthetic of the early Weimar period.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays the large numeral 50 prominently in the central field, enclosed within a twisted rope circle that defines an inner medallion. The circular legend KLEINGELDERSATZMARKE runs along the outer margin between the rope border and the pearl rim, identifying the piece as a small-change substitute token. Three five-pointed stars are evenly spaced at the base of the design, below the rope circle, serving as decorative separators. The pearl border follows the octagonal outline of the flan, consistent with the obverse treatment.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued by the Kredit-Verein zu Elmshorn during the notgeld emergency of World War I, when the German imperial government's hoarding of copper and nickel for munitions production gutted the supply of small-denomination coinage almost overnight. Municipal bodies, savings institutions, and private credit associations scrambled to fill the gap with iron, zinc, and pressed paper. Iron notgeld from this period corrodes aggressively in circulated condition; survivors with clean surfaces are the exception.
