| Beschrijving voorzijde | Notgeld voucher printed in purple-brown on a cream ground, enclosed within a twisted-rope decorative border. The denomination "Eine Million Mark" is set in large blackletter script across the centre, above a faint underprint vignette; the upper portion carries the issuer's title and the numeral value "1 000 000 Mk." in bold letterpress, with "1 MILLION" repeated vertically along both side margins. The municipal coat of arms of Buer is printed at the foot centre, flanked by the issue date and two facsimile authorisation signatures of the Magistrat. |

Buer was a mid-sized industrial town in the Ruhr coalfields — not a national bank, not even a regional one. Its authority to issue this note derived purely from the emergency Notgeld framework that collapsed alongside the mark itself in 1923. By the time a million-mark denomination was necessary for ordinary transactions, the figure had lost all psychological weight; this note would have bought roughly a loaf of bread at the moment of issue, and less a week later.
The dual signatures of Schossier and Jansen reflect the municipal counter-signing requirement — a formality that did nothing to inspire public confidence but satisfied the legal minimum for local currency issuance.
