| Obverse description | A large stylised tree occupies the left half of the face, its foliage rendered in bold woodcut style, with the municipal arms of Diepholz — a shield charged with a lion passant beneath a mural crown — set within the canopy at left. The denomination "75 Pf." appears in large Gothic numerals at upper right, followed by the text "Gutschein des Fleckens Diepholz" in Fraktur script. Redemption conditions, the date "Diepholz, d. 18. Juli 1921," and the facsimile signature of Der Magistrat are inscribed in the lower right field; the printer's imprint of Gebrüder Jänecke runs along the bottom margin below the outer border. |
