The title 'Kriegsgefangenen-Lagergeld' and serial number appear across the top, below which the value legend 'Gutschein über 5 Reichsmark' is set in large Gothic blackletter type. A Wehrmacht eagle-and-swastika vignette occupies the lower left, flanked by the conditions-of-use regulations text; the issuing authority and a manuscript countersignature appear at the foot, all within a decorative dotted border. |
