| Descrizione del dritto | The obverse is set within a green border and printed in black Gothic (Fraktur) script throughout. At the top, the denomination heading 'Eine Mark Gutschein' is printed in large display type, flanked on the right by a black rectangular vignette bearing the numeral '1' and the word 'Mark' with a stylised bird motif. A central text block carries a Frisian-language patriotic motto in red display lettering: 'Lewer duar üs Slav!' (Better dead than a slave), introduced by a German passage affirming Frisian cultural identity. A second black vignette with the denomination '1 Mark' appears at the lower left. The date of issue 'List, den 21. Juli 1921', a manuscript signature, and the issuing authority 'List auf Sylt' are printed across the lower portion, with the printer's imprint 'Edler & Krische, Hannover' in the lower right margin. |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The reverse is dominated by a large scenic vignette rendered in an expressive woodcut-like style, printed in black, green, and ochre tones against a light underprint. The central image shows a rowing boat with two figures navigating rough North Sea surf, with a distant vessel visible on the horizon to the left. The artist's signature 'Deus' appears in the lower right corner of the vignette. Across the top, the legend 'Eine Mark Gutschein, List a. Sylt' is set in bold Gothic display type, and the entire composition is framed by the same green border as the obverse. |

List auf Sylt sits at the northern tip of Germany's largest North Sea island, and in 1921 it was a small fishing community with no particular monetary weight behind it. This note exists because the postwar coin shortage — a direct consequence of metal hoarding and wartime minting disruptions — forced hundreds of German municipalities to issue their own Notgeld, paper standing in for Pfennig and Mark coins that simply weren't circulating. Edler & Krische in Hannover handled a substantial volume of this municipal emergency paper during the period, producing work of consistently decent quality for clients well below the scale of a city treasury.
The designer credit to "Deus" is unusual enough to note — a name that appears on other Notgeld issues from this printer's network, though biographical details remain thin.
