Obverse description Typographically bold Expressionist layout executed in black and brown on cream paper, with a green underprint. The face is dominated by large block lettering reading 'NOTGELD DER STADT ITZEHOE' arranged across the top and sides, with the denomination '75 Pf' at each corner in green squares. A central text panel lists comparative commodity prices for Itzehoe in 1913 and 1921, illustrating wartime inflation, with redemption instructions referencing the Hauptkasse and bearing the manuscript signature of the Bürgermeister. The serial number, printer imprint 'GEDRUCKT W. GENTE, HAMBG.' and the artist's monogram 'W.A.H.' appear at lower centre.
