| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a central polychrome vignette set within an oval wreath of foliage and wild roses against a light blue ground, the denomination numeral '75' appearing in dark green at each upper corner. The vignette, signed by the artist with the date 1921 at lower left, portrays Saint Elizabeth of Hungary kneeling in a garden setting before a castle backdrop, distributing bread from a wicker basket to a group of supplicants including a child and two elderly figures. A decorative cartouche at the foot of the vignette bears the title legend in red and black Fraktur, while the printer's imprint 'Offsetdruck Arthur Kirchner Erfurt' appears in the lower right margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Kleinrentner — "small annuitants" — were a class of middle-class Germans whose fixed-income savings had been decimated by wartime inflation. By 1921, charitable relief organizations were springing up across the German states specifically to support them, and several issued their own notgeld to fund operations locally. This Meiningen piece is one of the more obscure examples of that phenomenon: welfare-issue scrip rather than municipal emergency currency, with a specific beneficiary class built into the issuer's name.
Arthur Kirchner's Erfurt print shop handled a substantial volume of Thuringian notgeld during this period. The .2 suffix in the DeNG reference suggests at least one variant exists.
