| Beschrijving keerzijde | A richly coloured woodcut-style vignette illustrates the folk tale scene in which Till Eulenspiegel, dressed in a red jester's costume and holding a painter's palette, gestures toward a blank canvas on an easel before a group of courtiers and a robed duke, set within a Gothic arched interior with a townscape visible through the arch. The designer's name 'Günther Claus' appears in the upper right corner, and the printer's imprint 'Druck H.G. Rathgens Lübeck' runs vertically along the right margin. The explanatory caption in Gothic script is printed along the lower border. |

| Opmerkingen |
Kneitlingen, a small village in Lower Saxony, claims one legitimate distinction: it is the reputed birthplace of Till Eulenspiegel, the roguish folk trickster whose pranks were first compiled in print around 1510. That association drove virtually every aesthetic and commercial decision behind this Notgeld issue, which was produced during the height of Germany's municipal scrip craze when thousands of communities printed decorative small-denomination notes to generate collector revenue as much as to ease coin shortages.
H.G. Rathgens of Lübeck was a minor but active Notgeld printer during 1921–1922, handling commissions from numerous North German municipalities. Designer Günther Clausen's involvement suggests a locally commissioned artwork rather than a stock design pulled from a printer's catalogue.
