🔹 Аверс

Опис: Municipal emergency note of the First Republic of Austria, printed on unwatermarked wood-pulp wove paper. The design is horizontally oriented and symmetrically balanced, with large ornamental “50” denomination numerals positioned at both lateral margins. The upper portion bears the formal title of issue identifying the Market Town of Furth bei Göttweig as the issuing authority. At center is a finely executed line-engraved townscape vignette depicting a narrow street perspective of Furth bei Göttweig, visually anchored by the prominent church tower rising above clustered buildings. The imagery situates the note within its local geographic and cultural context and reflects the characteristic pictorial style of Lower Austrian notgeld of the immediate post–World War I period. Below the vignette appears a formal legal declaration affirming that the municipality assumes full financial responsibility for the obligation with its movable assets, followed by a warning against counterfeiting. The lower portion is dated and includes official municipal signatures, including that of the Vice Mayor, providing administrative authentication and reinforcing the note’s status as an officially sanctioned emergency issue.

🔸 Реверс

Опис: Textual reverse with a structured, framed layout emphasizing clarity and legal specificity. The upper margin credits the designer and printer, identifying regional production and professional execution rather than private or speculative manufacture. The main body of text provides a detailed explanatory notice outlining the purpose of the issue: the alleviation of acute small-coin shortages (Kleingeldnot) through the circulation of interest-free municipal cash notes. It specifies the total authorized amount of emergency currency issued and clearly defines the temporal limits of circulation and redemption. The explicit inclusion of acceptance and redemption dates underscores the temporary and controlled nature of the note, characteristic of Austrian municipal notgeld issued under the First Republic. The restrained, text-only presentation reflects the practical intent of the issue and contrasts with later, more decorative or commemorative notgeld productions.
