A horizontal panel in yellow and black at the lower edge bears the denomination numeral '50' at each side and the issuing legend in Gothic blackletter between them.

Opmerkingen

Paulinzella is little more than a hamlet — its entire claim to wider attention rests on the Romanesque ruins of a Benedictine priory founded in 1105. The municipality's decision to issue notgeld in 1921 was as much promotional as it was practical; the acute coin shortage of the early Weimar period gave hundreds of small German communities cover to produce decorated emergency currency that doubled as collectible tourist material. Paulinzella leaned into this harder than most.

The "Monastery Series" designation implies a planned sequence, and this Issue 1 piece was printed by Johannes Arndt Druckerei in Jena — a regional firm that handled a number of Thuringian notgeld commissions during this period. Designer Körschau is known by surname only in the philatelic and notgeld literature.
