PADERBORN 1921 "Donkey 'Minting' Ducats" Complete Black Series German Notgeld
To translate the dialect poem on the Donkey note, first the High German would probably be something like:
Ein Esel, der Dukaten scheißt,
den haben wir Paderborner nicht.
Doch gibt es Esel genug in der Welt,
die kaufen unser Papiergeld.
So in English:
An a** that sh*ts ducats,
this we Paderborners don't have.
But there are enough a**es in the world,
that buy our paper money.
Very reminiscent of the humor of our modern era surrounding cryptocurrency, this kind of self-deprecating humor was popular with the community of Notgeld collectors back in 1921!
