| Beschrijving voorzijde | Orange ground with black letterpress printing throughout. The large numeral '75' occupies the upper left, with 'PFENNIG' below it, and the city arms of Ansbach — a shield bearing diagonal wavy lines and three fish — set beneath, flanked by the jubilee dates '1221' and '1921'. To the right, bold decorative lettering reads 'JUBILÄUMS-NOTGELD DER KREISHAUPTSTADT ANSBACH', with a serial number panel rendered in red within a wavy-line vignette, surrounded by the validity clauses 'NUR MIT DER AMTL. NUMMER' and 'GILTIG BIS AUF WIDERRUF'. The issue date '12·8·21' and a manuscript facsimile signature above the legend 'RECHTSK·1·BÜRGERMEISTER' appear at the foot of the right panel. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Orange ground with an expansive black silhouette vignette executed in a bold woodcut style. A mounted rider — rendered as the allegorical figure of Death bearing a scythe — gallops at full stride across a landscape strewn with small figures and stylized plants, evoking the historical sacking of Ansbach in 1430. The date '1430' is inscribed in the upper left corner, and a decorative text band in ornamental letterpress along the lower border reads 'DIE HUSSITEN'. |

Ansbach's 1921 Notgeld issue was part of the vast wave of municipal emergency money that flooded Germany as federal coinage disappeared from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply insufficient to meet daily transactional demand in the inflationary spiral following defeat in the First World War. Willy Flach's involvement is locally significant; he was an Ansbach-based artist, and his engagement reflects the broader Notgeld phenomenon of municipalities commissioning regional talent rather than commercial printing houses.
The 75 Pfennig denomination is slightly unusual — most series concentrated on rounder values, and its presence suggests the series was calibrated against specific local pricing needs rather than issued as a collectible set from the outset.
