The denomination 25 PFENNIG appears in large Gothic numerals at the upper left. The central text block in blackletter script reads JUBILÄUMS-NOTGELD DER KREISHAUPTSTADT ANSBACH, with the date of issue STADTRAT 12.8.21 and the manuscript signature of the 1. Bürgermeister below.

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Green ground with a bold black border frame, matching the obverse. A large silhouette vignette in black occupies the full field, rendered in an Expressionist woodcut style: to the left, a campfire burns amid ruins; to the right, two grotesque figures in wide-brimmed hats dance and play a wind instrument, evoking a scene from the Thirty Years' War period. The year 1647 is inscribed in bold numerals at the upper left of the vignette. A lower panel carries the inscription DER SCHWEDENTRUNK in blackletter, flanked by decorative fish motifs. |

| Anmerkungen |
Ansbach's 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the second wave of German municipal emergency currency — the period after the Reichsbank's initial postwar shortages but well before hyperinflation made small-denomination scrip entirely obsolete. The Stadtrat commissioned local designer Willy Flach, a decision consistent with the broader Notgeld phenomenon where municipalities treated their scrip as civic promotion, sometimes producing issues of genuine graphic quality.
Flach's involvement suggests in-house or locally contracted production rather than the large specialist printers who handled bulk Notgeld runs for dozens of towns simultaneously. Whether the Stadtrat issued multiple denominations under his design or this 25 Pfennig piece stands alone in the series is worth establishing before cataloging further.
