| Obverse description | Tan and brown Notgeld note with a wavy-line guilloche border frame and the denomination repeated vertically in the left and right margins. The central field carries a large-script calligraphic denomination 'Eine Million Mark' as the dominant vignette, set over a lightly printed underprint showing the numeral '1000000' and flanked on either side by heraldic lion vignettes. Above, a two-line issuing text and a promise-to-pay clause appear in Gothic script; below, the place and date 'Elberfeld, den 10. August 1923' appear at lower left, with the Oberbürgermeister's manuscript signature and title at lower right. |
