| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central vignette presents a woodcut-style view of the Stellau village church with a large rounded boulder in the foreground inscribed with the dates 1189, 1201, and 1230, flanked by a cross. Two vertical black panels on the left and right each contain a full-length figure of a bishop in vestments carrying a pastoral staff, set against a star-dotted night sky. The denomination "75 PFENNIG" appears in the upper corners, with "Notgeld von Stellau" in bold letterpress across the top centre, the issue date "Stellau, 1. Aug. 21" at lower left, validity date "Gültig B. 1. Mai 22" at lower right, and two facsimile signatures within a decorative cartouche at the bottom centre. |

| Opschrift keerzijde | Als die Kirche in Stellau gebaut wurde, wollte der Teufel den Bau gern hindern. Da nahm er einen großen Stein, legte ihn in das Strumpfband seiner Großmutter und schleuderte ihn nach der Kirche. Da aber das Strumpfband riß, gelangte der Stein nicht ganz an sein Ziel, sondern fiel einige hundert Schritt vor der Kirche nieder. (Aus Pastor Kählers «Stör-Bramau-Tal».) |

Stellau is a village in Holstein — historically tiny, with a population that probably never exceeded a few hundred — yet like thousands of German municipalities in the early 1920s it found itself issuing its own emergency currency as the Weimar Republic's inflation crisis made small-denomination coinage effectively disappear from circulation. The Gemeinde's 75 Pfennig note is squarely within this Notgeld wave, most of which was printed between 1921 and 1922 before hyperinflation rendered the entire pfennig denominations irrelevant anyway.
R.C. Delfs was an engraver active in the Hamburg region during this period, responsible for a number of local Schleswig-Holstein Notgeld issues.
