| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central field is occupied by the Wesel civic coat of arms — a red shield charged with three weasels arranged two-over-one, with an inescutcheon bearing white scrollwork — enclosed within elaborate wheat-sheaf and rope garland ornaments in olive-gold tones. Dark lateral panels at left and right carry the denomination "75 Pfg." in bold script, while the curved Gothic legend "Gutschein der Stadt Wesel" arches across the upper margin. The lower portion contains a serif text block stating redemption conditions, the issue year 1921, a serial number in a wavy-lined box at lower left, and the manuscript signature of the Bürgermeister at lower right. |

Wesel's 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the second wave of German municipal emergency currency — the so-called "Serienscheine" phase, when towns began treating small-denomination scrip as a revenue source rather than a purely functional stopgap. By 1921, inflation was accelerating but had not yet become catastrophic; municipalities issued attractive sets specifically designed to be collected and never returned for redemption, pocketing the float.
Wesel, a garrison town at the confluence of the Rhine and Lippe with a long Prussian military history, produced sets that found a ready philatelic market. The 75 Pfennig denomination is the highest in most standard three-note Serienscheine sets, and surviving complete sets command a modest but consistent premium over single notes.
