| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a heraldic eagle or bird device in low relief, rendered in a simplified stylized manner characteristic of wartime Notgeld production. The legend DIE STADT curves along the upper periphery and GRÜNHAIN along the lower periphery, both in raised Latin capital letters, together identifying the issuing municipality. The overall design is modest and utilitarian, consistent with the emergency coinage of the First World War period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Grünhain issued this cardboard notgeld during the acute metal shortages of 1917–18, when wartime requisitioning had stripped Germany's municipalities of the copper and nickel needed for small-denomination coinage. The Reichsbank's inability to supply adequate fractional currency pushed hundreds of small towns to print or stamp their own emergency pieces from whatever material was available — paper, cardboard, zinc, even porcelain.
Grünhain itself was a minor Saxon town, its economy anchored to the surrounding Erzgebirge mining district.
