| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dark-toned reverse with a predominantly black background and green ribbon-pattern side borders, the denomination numeral 75 appearing in each corner. A central oval vignette with a light blue ground presents a detailed view of the Rathausgiebel (Town Hall gable) of Pößneck, its stepped Gothic façade rendered in brown and red. Below the vignette, the municipal coat of arms — black lion on blue shield with red foliate scrollwork — is captioned RATHAUSGIEBEL. A verse in Gothic script runs along all four margins, printed sideways and inverted on the bottom border. The printer's imprint appears at the foot: Druck: Johannes Arndt, Jena. |

| Opmerkingen |
Pößneck was a small Thuringian textile town with no particular monetary history to speak of, which makes its 1921 notgeld program entirely typical of the period — local governments across Germany were printing their own emergency fractional currency as the Reichsbank failed to supply adequate coinage during the post-war inflation spiral. The Stadt commissioned Johannes Arndt Druckerei in Jena, a regional commercial press rather than a specialist security printer, with design credited to a "Rohde, Jena" who appears across several Thuringian notgeld issues of the same year but remains otherwise unidentified in the philatelic record.
The 113 × 75 mm format was on the larger end for 75 Pfennig issues, giving the designer room to work.
