| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is set on a diamond-pattern underprint ground in beige and red. A central circular vignette on a dark background presents a white stork with outstretched wings sheltering several smaller birds among reeds, rendered in a bold graphic silhouette style. Flanking the central vignette are two large red oval cartouches each bearing the denomination numeral '75' in white, with the denomination title 'Pfennig' in Gothic script across the top. Below the vignette runs the issuer legend 'Notgeld Wünschendorf' in decorative red Gothic lettering, followed by a text panel noting validity conditions referencing the Weidaer Zeitung, the place and date 'Wünschendorf a.d.Elster, den 20. September 1921', and a manuscript signature of the Gemeindevorstand. |

Across the lower register, a brown band carries the title 'Hansjörgen bei den Zwergen!' in Gothic script, flanked by two red denomination cartouches reading '75 Pfg.' on each side. |

Wünschendorf an der Elster is a small village in Thuringia, and this 75-Pfennig note is squarely a product of the German Kleingeldersatz crisis of the early 1920s — the acute small-change shortage that drove thousands of municipalities, cooperatives, and commercial firms to issue their own emergency paper. The Gemeindevorstand (municipal board) authorization was the lowest tier of issuing authority possible, which is precisely why so many of these village-level Notgeld pieces were printed in short runs, often locally, and on whatever stock was available.
Schimmel's signature as Gemeindevorstand gives this note its sole authentication. No bank, no guarantor — just a village official's name on paper.
