Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse is printed in black and ochre-gold with a striking silhouette composition by Jakob Willy. The central field, set against a black background, depicts a large outline map of Upper Silesia in white, over which three silhouetted figures are shown in a political allegory: a top-hatted man blowing soap bubbles labeled with references to international bodies, a kneeling child holding a sign inscribed 'Ober-Schlesien', and a standing armed figure, with a heraldic shield bearing a sword to the right. Flanking vertical borders in gold carry circular medallions inscribed with the words 'Visum', 'Pass', 'Paritäts Ausschuss', 'Interalli. Büro', 'Odezwa' on the left and 'Apo', 'Aufruf', 'Pass', 'Völker Bund' on the right, reflecting the plebiscite context; the denomination '75 Pf.' appears at the top and bottom of each border in Gothic lettering.

Opmerkingen

Przyschetz is a small Upper Silesian settlement — today Przyszowice, Poland — that issued this note during the 1921 plebiscite period, when the fate of the entire region was formally undecided between Germany and the newly reconstituted Polish state. The practical shortage of small-denomination coinage across Upper Silesia during this period drove hundreds of municipalities to commission their own Notgeld, and Przyschetz was no exception.

Carl Flemming & T. C. Wiskott A.G. in Glogau handled a substantial volume of Upper Silesian Notgeld commissions in these years — a regional press serving a regional crisis. The designer credit to Jakob Willy is the more unusual detail; named individual designers are relatively uncommon in Notgeld documentation at this scale.
