| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse of this German Notgeld issue presents the denomination and issuing town name within a typeset layout, with text-based design elements typical of small municipal emergency currency of the 1919 period. Decorative border elements frame the central text field, which carries the face value in Pfennige alongside the authorizing municipal inscription. The overall composition reflects the letterpress production methods commonly employed for Kleingeldscheine of the Rhine Province. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse carries the conditions of validity and the redemption notice specifying the expiry date of 30 September 1921, in accordance with standard Notgeld practice for municipal issues of the Prussian Rhine Province. Typeset text elements, likely including anti-counterfeiting warnings or legal tender clauses, are arranged within a plain bordered field. The design is characteristically utilitarian, consistent with emergency small-change notes issued by Lower Rhine municipalities during the post-World War I currency shortage. |

| Anmerkungen |
Rees is a small Rhine town in what is now North Rhine-Westphalia, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1919, it issued its own emergency scrip — Notgeld — to compensate for the chronic shortage of small-denomination coinage that had plagued daily commerce since the war years. The Reichsbank could not keep up with demand, and local authorities filled the gap themselves.
Municipal Notgeld of this type was printed in vast quantities and often redeemed quickly, making genuinely circulated examples harder to find than uncirculated ones held back by collectors almost from the moment of issue.
