| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The upper register presents a panoramic cityscape vignette of Neustadt as recorded by Merian in 1650, rendered in fine line engraving across the full width of the note. The central field is divided into three panels: the left panel bears the legend 'Tucher' above crossed shears and tailoring tools on a dark ground, the central panel carries the municipal coat of arms within an ornate foliate surround, and the right panel bears the legend 'Gerber' above two heraldic lions flanking a tanning vat. The lower margin contains the denomination '50 Pf' at each corner, the issuer name 'Neustadt an der Orla', validity text, the date 'Neustadt / 1.9.21', and the facsimile signature of Bürgermeister Gerhard, with the printer's imprint below. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The vignette occupies the full upper register and depicts two Swedish soldiers in 17th-century military dress standing before a half-timbered and Renaissance townhouse, illustrating the Swedish occupation of Neustadt circa 1640; the scene is captioned 'Die Schweden in Neustadt Ann. 1640' at the top. The artist's name 'Körn.au' appears in the upper left corner. A teal band along the lower margin carries the denomination numeral '50' at each extremity flanking the bold gothic inscription 'Notgeld der Stadt Neustadt / Orla', with the printer's imprint 'Druck von Johannes Arndt, Jena' below. |

Neustadt an der Orla issued this note during the peak of Germany's postwar Kleingeldnot — the acute small-change shortage that drove thousands of municipalities to print their own emergency currency between 1920 and 1922. The "History Series" designation indicates the city produced multiple related designs around a local historical theme, a common marketing decision among Thuringian towns that also made such Notgeld attractive to collectors, which was, frankly, part of the point.
Johannes Arndt in Jena handled an enormous volume of Thuringian municipal commissions during this period. The Bürgermeister Gerhard signature appears in printed facsimile rather than manuscript.
