| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse of this German Notgeld issue carries the municipal text identifying Süsel as the issuing authority, with the denomination value of 1 Mark rendered in bold letterpress typography at centre. A guilloche underprint provides a decorative background pattern typical of emergency currency of this period, with ornamental borders framing the face of the note. The date of issue and relevant validity or redemption conditions are inscribed in the lower portion of the note in period-standard Gothic script. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a plain or lightly ornamented field consistent with small-denomination Notgeld issues printed by H. G. Rahtgens, carrying textual information regarding the note's validity and municipal guarantee. Decorative typographic borders frame the composition, with any anti-counterfeiting elements typical of local emergency currency of the early Weimar period incorporated into the design. The overall layout reflects the utilitarian letterpress production standard of German municipal Notgeld circa 1920. |

| Opmerkingen |
Süsel is a small parish in Holstein, and like hundreds of similarly modest German municipalities in 1920, it issued emergency money — Notgeld — to fill the gap left by the chronic shortage of small-denomination coinage in the postwar years. H. G. Rahtgens in Lübeck handled printing for numerous local issuers across Schleswig-Holstein during this period, functioning essentially as a regional clearinghouse for Notgeld production.
Collector demand drove many municipalities to produce decorative series far beyond actual circulation needs. Whether Süsel's issue was purely functional or partly speculative is worth considering when assessing genuine wear.
