| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Printed in dark brown on a salmon-pink underprint, the obverse is dominated by a central rectangular vignette enclosed within an ornate letterpress border of interlocking geometric and hatched patterns. The denomination 'ZEHN MILLIONEN MARK' is set in large Gothic blackletter type at the centre of the vignette, above a three-line text block in smaller script stating the issuing authority, place, and date of issue (Düsseldorf, den 1. September 1923), followed by the legend 'Landesbank der Rheinprovinz General-Direktion' and a manuscript signature. The inscription 'LANDESBANK DER RHEINPROVINZ' repeats in large red letterpress along the top and bottom margins, flanked by symmetrical diamond-shaped ornamental devices at left and right. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in dark brown on a salmon-pink underprint, with 'LANDESBANK DER RHEINPROVINZ' in large red letterpress across the top and bottom margins. The central vignette, enclosed within a bold rectangular border, presents a heraldic Prussian eagle within an oval medallion inscribed 'LANDESBANK DER RHEINPROVINZ', flanked by two allegorical standing figures rendered in a woodcut-style artistic manner — a male labourer to the left and a female figure to the right. Below the vignette, the numeral '10,000,000' is rendered in large ornamented type above the word 'MARK', while the provincial seal with eagle motif appears twice in red in the outer left and right margins. |

| Anmerkungen |
The Landesbank der Rheinprovinz issued this note during the catastrophic hyperinflation of summer-autumn 1923, when German municipal and regional institutions printed their own emergency currency — Notgeld — because Reichsbank denominations became obsolete faster than they could be officially replaced. By August 1923, ten million marks would not have covered a tram fare in Düsseldorf for long.
The Rheinprovinz series was printed locally, which was unusual enough — many regional issuers were contracting out to overwhelmed commercial printers across Germany. The suffix designation in the DeNG reference suggests this is one of several typographic or paper variants within the same denomination run.
