| Obverse description | A beaded border encircles the entire field, which is occupied by a seven-line inscribed legend in raised Latin lettering. The text reads 'UNTER GEWÄHR DER GEMEINDE LETMATHE LANDKREIS ISERLOHN 1917', with the place name 'LETMATHE' rendered in a larger, more prominent display typeface to emphasize the issuing municipality. The date 1917 appears at the base of the legend. The overall design is purely typographic, characteristic of wartime German Notgeld emergency coinage. |
