| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is printed on a grey-green ground in black and blue. A central circular vignette set against a blue underprint presents a finely engraved portrait bust of Friedrich Schiller in three-quarter view, rendered in a bold woodcut-style line technique and enclosed within a heavy double ring. The denomination '50 PFENNIG' appears in large blue letterpress numerals and text in the left and right lateral panels, while the heading 'NOTGELD DER STADT WEIMAR' runs in bold Gothic blackletter across the top. Below the vignette, the date 'WEIMAR DEN 1. MÄRZ 1921' is given alongside the issuing authority designations 'OBERBÜRGERMEISTER' and 'VORSITZENDER', with two manuscript facsimile signatures and a serial number, followed by a redemption clause and the printer's imprint at the foot. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse carries a full-bleed allegorical vignette executed in a bold, expressionist woodcut-style engraving with a blue underprint in the upper field. A semi-nude male figure, arms raised dramatically toward the heavens, is rendered amid swirling clouds, rocky terrain, and foliage in a turbulent, Romantic composition. Below the vignette, within an ornamental cartouche with dotted border, a four-line quotation from Schiller is printed in blue Gothic letterpress. A small artist's signature appears in the lower right margin. |

| Anmerkungen |
Weimar's 1921 Notgeld series was a deliberate act of civic branding. The city leaned hard into its cultural associations during the inflationary emergency, commissioning local printer Dietsch & Brückner to produce notes that functioned as much as collectibles as exchange instruments. By 1921 the German Notgeld market had become openly commercial — municipalities printed far more than local trade required, selling sets directly to collectors across Germany and abroad.
Dietsch & Brückner printed extensively for Thuringian municipalities during this period and were well positioned to handle the short-run, artistically ambitious work the Weimar series demanded.
