| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a humorous multi-figure vignette in grey-blue and orange, signed by artist Arno Grimm at lower left, showing three hunters in animated poses struggling over a hare lying on the ground — a visual pun on local Thuringian dialect. To the right, within an arched niche, stands an elderly woman in traditional dress observing a cat, captioned 'Fama'. The denomination wreath medallion with '50' in orange appears at upper centre, suspended by orange ribbons, and the full-width lower panel bears the inscription in Fraktur script. |

Bürgel's third issue in its Hunting Series belongs to a wave of municipal Kleingeldscheine that flooded Germany in 1921 as coin shortages, driven by wartime metal requisitions and postwar hoarding, left small-denomination transactions nearly impossible. Cities, towns, and even individual firms printed their own emergency fractional notes, often using them as a simultaneous exercise in local promotion — collectors were a known audience, and municipalities leaned into it.
Arno Grimm's involvement and local printing by Kunstanstalt Alfred Eisenach, a Bürgel-based commercial art printer, kept this series unusually close to home. The thematic coherence across the three issues is deliberate; hunting imagery had deep roots in Thuringian civic identity.
