| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in dark brown, gold, and red on cream paper, the obverse is framed by a decorative border of stylised foliate ornaments with corner squares. The central vignette presents a nude male athlete leaning against a tall Ionic column while holding an olive branch aloft, set against a red-printed underprint of four additional columns surmounted by six-pointed stars. The event date '12.-24. AUGUST 1921' runs along the top, the bold legend 'KULTUR u. SPORT-WOCHE HAMBURG' appears beneath the vignette, and the denomination '1 MARK' is enclosed within a dark circular cartouche at lower centre, flanked by redemption text and two manuscript signatures above the printer's imprint. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed in dark brown, gold, black, red, and white on cream paper within the same stylised foliate border as the obverse, the reverse centres on a large standing male statue rendered in a light-toned print against a dark stippled background suggesting an open landscape. The tall plinth bears a horizontal tricolour band in black, white, and red — the German merchant flag — and the denomination '1 MARK' is set in gold within a black circular cartouche at the pedestal's centre. The motto 'Seid einig, einig, einig!' appears at the top margin, with the patriotic legend 'Deutschlands Handels-Flagge sei schwarz-weiss-rot!' running along the lower margin. |

Hamburg's 1921 Kultur und Sportwoche notgeld series was issued specifically to commemorate a civic cultural and sports festival — one of hundreds of German cities that used the notgeld format after the war not out of monetary necessity alone, but as deliberate local promotion. By 1921 the acute coin shortage that had driven emergency currency issuance since 1914 was easing, and many municipalities were frankly exploiting collector demand. These "Serienscheine" were printed in quantity with the expectation they would never circulate at all.
Coutinho u. Meyer was a Hamburg printing house responsible for several local notgeld issues in this period, working close to their clients geographically and commercially.
