| Obverse description | The obverse is divided into two panels set against a brown floral guilloche underprint, with vertical marginal lettering reading EINE MILLION on all four borders. The left panel carries the issuing authority title in Gothic script at top, series letter D and serial number in green, the large denomination text EINE MILLION MARK in bold Gothic letterpress, the promise-to-pay clause, date of issue, and two manuscript signatures below. The right panel presents an oval vignette of a half-timbered street scene in Hattingen, rendered in fine line engraving with figures and buildings under a dramatic clouded sky, initialled W.S. at lower right. |

A lightly printed watermark-style vignette of a city gate or fortified tower underprint occupies the central register behind the large denomination inscription EINE MILLION MARK in bold Gothic script. A two-line notice of validity in smaller Gothic type appears at the lower centre. |
