| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a large, spreading ancient oak tree — the historic Vehmic oak of Erle — rendered in fine relief, its broad canopy filling the upper field and its massive gnarled trunk extending into the lower portion of the coin below a horizontal dividing line. Inscribed across the central band in two lines of Fraktur blackletter script is the legend '1000 j. Vehm Eiche zu Erle', commemorating the millennial anniversary of the legendary Vehmic court oak at Erle. The design is framed by a continuous wavy inner border mirroring the obverse. The overall composition is bold and naturalistic, evoking local historical and folkloric tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lembeck is a small parish in Westphalia, and its 1920 iron notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of municipal emergency coinage that flooded Germany following World War I, when chronic metal shortages and hoarding caused official small change to vanish from circulation almost entirely. Hundreds of towns — including ones with no prior minting history — were authorized to produce their own subsidiary coinage. Iron was the default fallback material once copper, nickel, and zinc grew difficult to source reliably.
The Funck reference places this firmly within the documented notgeld corpus, though Lembeck's issues attract little speculative attention compared to larger municipal issuers.
