| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central vignette, signed 'Pix' in the lower left, illustrates a mounted armoured knight at full gallop on a black horse, holding a lance and clutching a young prince, referencing the historical Sächsische Prinzenraub of 1455. Flanking text panels in Gothic script recount the episode of Kunz von Kaufungen fleeing from Altenburg castle with Prince Albrecht toward the Erzgebirge, while a second knight carries Prince Ernst toward Zwickau. The denomination '50' in red appears at all four corners with 'Pfg.' inscribed in the upper lateral panels, and the caption 'Sächs. Prinzenraub.' is set along the bottom border. |

The "Prinzenraub" — the 1455 abduction of the Saxon princes Ernst and Albrecht by the knight Kunz von Kaufungen — took place near Altenburg, and the city has long treated the episode as a founding myth of local identity. Issuing Notgeld around this theme in 1921 was therefore not arbitrary: Altenburg was one of the more deliberate participants in the collector-driven Serienscheine market, producing themed sets intended as much for the philatelic trade as for actual small-change use.
J. A. Schwarz of Lindenberg im Allgäu was a prolific Notgeld printer of the period. The designer credit "Pix" appears on multiple Altenburg issues from this run.
