| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bold pictorial vignette in black, red, and ochre-yellow depicting a historical scene of a mounted nobleman in 17th-century dress receiving a formal greeting from a group of townspeople and officials before a stylised red cityscape with towers. The denomination 'Eine Mark' is inscribed in red Gothic lettering at the top centre. At the bottom centre, the town arms — a crowned queen on a red shield — appear within a white escutcheon, framed below by an interlaced guilloche border in red and orange. A designer's monogram is visible in the lower left corner. |

Königsberg in der Neumark — today Chojna, Poland — was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced to issue emergency paper money during the hyperinflation that began accelerating in 1922. These Stadtgeld issues filled the void left by chronic small-denomination coin shortages, themselves a consequence of Gresham's Law operating at full force: metal currency was being hoarded or melted as the mark collapsed.
The city had no particular banking infrastructure of its own; the practical mechanics of printing and distribution were typically handled through regional printers serving dozens of such municipal clients simultaneously. This note's brief useful life was measured in weeks, not months.
