| Obverse description | A horizontal row of six owls is arranged across the upper portion of the note, with the denomination '75' centred among them; a banner bearing the municipal seal of Kneitlingen appears at the bottom. The composition is executed in a folk-art woodcut style consistent with the Notgeld aesthetic of the early 1920s. |
