| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a naturalistic forest scene within a raised pearl border. Two tall conifer trees, rendered in fine relief with detailed branching foliage, rise symmetrically from a grassy ground line, one on the left and one on the right of the composition. In the foreground between the trees, two mushrooms are depicted growing from the ground, referencing the Black Forest character of the Schönwald region. The field is otherwise plain, with no legend or inscription, the entire scene framed by the continuous pearl rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Schönwald is a small town in the Black Forest, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1920, it issued its own emergency coinage — Notgeld — to address the chronic shortage of small-denomination metal currency that followed the First World War. The Reichsbank had stripped copper and nickel from circulation for war production, and zinc became the default substitute for civic issuers who needed something physically durable enough to pass hand to hand.
Funck catalogues multiple varieties for this municipality, suggesting more than one die was used in production — not unusual for local issues where the striking was often contracted to regional workshops rather than official mints.
