| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central vignette renders the Luther Pulpit (Lutherkanzel) in a stylised colour lithograph, showing the ornate elevated pulpit on its slender column pedestal set against a stone-walled interior, with a figure of Luther visible within the canopied enclosure; the artist's signature 'Weyher-Sollenberg' appears at lower right of the vignette. The caption 'Lutherkanzel' is printed in letterpress below the central image, with the printer's imprint 'Druck von Adolf Forker, Leipzig.' at the foot of the note. The purple decorative border carries a Luther quotation in Gothic script running along all four margins, with heraldic corner ornaments. |

| Opmerkingen |
Wittenberg's Lutherhalle notgeld belongs to the wave of small-denomination emergency currency that flooded German municipal economies between 1921 and 1923 as hyperinflation made Reichsbank coinage effectively useless. The "E" series designation indicates this was one of multiple printings the city commissioned to meet ongoing demand — Adolf Forker in Leipzig was a prolific producer of provincial notgeld at this period, handling runs for numerous Saxon and Thuringian municipalities simultaneously.
The Lutherhalle itself, now the Lutherhaus museum, is the Augustinian monastery where Luther lived after the Reformation. Its name on the issuing authority gave these notes a certain local prestige — Wittenberg leaned hard on its Reformation associations when marketing collector series to the growing Scheinsammler trade in 1922.
