| Beschrijving voorzijde | A continuous beaded border frames the obverse field. The municipal coat of arms of Weiler, depicting a vertically divided shield bearing a serpent or snake device on a hatched field, occupies the central field. The town name WEILER appears in an arc across the upper portion of the shield, while the circular legend, reading KRIEGSNOTGELD DER MARKTGEMEINDE, runs along the inner edge of the beaded rim, separated by a cross pattée at the start. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Weiler's 1917 zinc Notgeld issue belongs to the vast municipal emergency coinage program that emerged when wartime metal requisitions stripped German towns of the copper and nickel they'd relied on for small change. By mid-1917 the Imperial government had effectively commandeered both metals for munitions, leaving market towns like Weiler to fend for themselves through locally authorized zinc substitutes.
Zinc was nobody's first choice — it corrodes readily in circulation and strikes poorly on worn dies.
