| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse carries a finely detailed pen-and-ink vignette of the old chapel and village entrance of Rhöndorf am Rhein, enclosed within a blue ruled border. The street scene shows the small chapel with its conical shingled roof and cross at centre, framed by half-timbered houses to the right and tall trees to either side, with the Drachenfels rocky outcrop rising steeply in the background. The artist's signature 'gez. W. Redeligx Rhöndorf' appears at lower left within the vignette, and the descriptive title is lettered in bold hand-drawn capitals above the bordered image. |

| Opmerkingen |
Bad Honnef's 99 Pfennig denomination is a deliberate quirk of the German Notgeld system. Municipalities issuing emergency currency in 1921 had discovered that collector demand — not local commerce — was driving print runs into the millions, and unusual denominations were a transparent strategy to stimulate that demand. A 99 Pfennig note served no practical monetary function that a 1 Mark note could not handle more cleanly.
At over twelve million copies printed, this was manufactured almost entirely for the philatelic and numismatic trade, not for use in Bad Honnef's shops.
