| Obverse description | Blue letterpress Notgeld on cream paper with an ornamental foliate border running the full perimeter. The denomination "Eine Million Mark" is set in a large blackletter typeface at centre, with the numeral "1000000" repeated at upper left and right flanking the word "Gutschein"; a pale guilloche underprint carries the text "1.000.000 Mark" and "Kreis- und Stadt-Sonneberg" in repeat across the field. Below the main legend, the issuing clause names the Stadtkasse Sonneberg Thür., dated Sonneberg i. Thür., den 14. August 1923, with series letter "C" at left, a six-digit serial number at right, and four manuscript signatures beneath the titles Der Gemeindevorsteher, Der Gemeinderat, Der Kreisdirektor, and Der Kreisrat; a vertical anti-counterfeiting warning text is printed along the right margin. |
