| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in violet ink on cream paper and enclosed within a decorative border of small squares. A header panel in the upper portion carries the title 'Donautal-Notgeld des oberen Donaugaues' in bold Gothic type. Below, a block of justified text in German sets out the legal basis for issue, stating that the Gemeinde Waldkirchen am Wesen resolved on 7 June 1920 to issue vouchers totalling 30,000 Kronen, redeemable at the municipal treasury (Gemeindekasse) in lawful currency between 1 and 31 December 1920. The place and date 'Waldkirchen am Wesen, am 7. Juni 1920' appear beneath the legal text, followed by the Bürgermeister's printed signature 'Anton Peham'; the denomination '60' is repeated in large stylised numerals at lower left and right, with a counterfeiting warning printed between them. A four-line verse in Gothic script runs vertically along the left margin. |
