| Beschrijving keerzijde | A photographic vignette printed in monochrome occupies the full face of the note, reproducing a panoramic view of Marburg with the town's rooftops and spires in the foreground and the imposing Landgrafenschloss (Marburg Castle) rising on its wooded hill in the background. The image is rendered in fine halftone letterpress, giving it a postcard-like quality. A caption in small type is printed along the lower edge. |

| Opmerkingen |
Marburg's district treasury was one of thousands of German local authorities forced into emergency currency issuance during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough physical notes to keep pace with collapsing purchasing power. By the time a million-mark denomination made practical sense, a loaf of bread cost considerably more. The Hessischer Verlag K. Euker, a local Marburg publisher, handled the printing — a reminder that much Notgeld at this level of the crisis was produced by whatever commercial printer happened to be nearby.
The embossed stamp served as the primary authentication measure, replacing the more sophisticated security printing that a specialized banknote printer would have provided.
