| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is laid out in a decorative Gothic-script letterpress style with the denomination numeral '50' in large red and green shadowed figures at left and right, flanking a central quartered heraldic shield in full colour — the arms of Treffurt, divided into fields bearing crossed swords over black and gold, a cartwheel on red, and a rampant white lion on blue. The title 'Notgeld' appears across the top in ornate Gothic lettering, with issuer and date inscriptions below the shield. A thin red ruled border frames the entire design. |

| Opmerkingen |
Treffurt an der Werra was a small Thuringian border town — population under 2,000 in the early Weimar period — and its decision to issue notgeld in 1921 was neither unusual nor remarkable for the time. Hundreds of German municipalities did exactly this as postwar coin shortages dragged on long after the armistice. What distinguished the better-issued townscape series was the use of offset lithography rather than the cheaper letterpress work common to municipal emergency issues, giving Arthur Kirchner's Erfurt shop room to render architectural detail with some fidelity.
The series itself was almost certainly printed for collector sale as much as genuine circulation, a widespread practice by 1921.
