| Beschrijving keerzijde | Green and black design divided into two horizontal registers. The upper register is tripartite: the denomination numeral '50' appears at the left in large script within a dark panel with swirling Art Nouveau ornament, a central vignette presents a view of Burg Ludwigstein — a medieval round tower and adjacent hall rising from a wooded hilltop — and the abbreviation 'Pf.' occupies the right panel in matching large script against the same decorative ground. The lower register contains a procession frieze rendered in a woodcut-like style, showing a file of costumed figures — musicians, standard-bearers, and attendants in historical dress — marching in a continuous band across the full width of the note. |

| Opmerkingen |
Ludwigstein castle, perched above the Werra valley near Witzenhausen, was purchased in 1919 by the German Youth Movement — specifically the Freideutsche Jugend — making it the first castle in Germany acquired and operated by a youth organization. This Notgeld issue was produced directly by the preservation society to fund ongoing restoration work on the medieval structure, a genuinely unusual case of emergency currency being used not for a municipal payroll crisis but for cultural conservation.
The Freideutsche Jugend connection gives this note a specific political edge: the movement had held its famous Meissner gathering in 1913, and by 1921 was already fragmenting along ideological lines.
