| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a central letterpress vignette of the Marx-Haus, a modernist multi-storey office building in Düsseldorf, set against a light blue guilloche underprint with trees in the foreground. Bold stylised numeral panels reading "10 000 000" flank the central vignette on both sides, rendered with zigzag decorative borders in black and green. The inscription along the lower margin states the legal authorisation basis, and the header cartouche names the building and the issuing city. |

| Opmerkingen |
Düsseldorf issued its own emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923 because the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to keep pace with collapsing purchasing power. Municipal and corporate notgeld at this denomination level was routine by mid-1923 — the 10,000,000 Mark figure, staggering by any prior standard, was already insufficient for daily transactions within weeks of issue. Stadt Düsseldorf, like dozens of other German municipalities, became a de facto currency authority out of necessity rather than legal ambition.
Notes of this type were printed and spent within days, sometimes hours. Survival in any grade reflects hoarding rather than normal attrition.
