| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in brown on a cream-coloured paper ground, framed by a fine ornamental guilloche border. The denomination 'Hundert Milliarden Mark' is set in large Gothic blackletter script across the upper field, beneath the Notgeld designation and the serial prefix 'C II' with number at upper right. A lengthy redemption text in Gothic script occupies the central body, specifying the issuing authorities, conditions of validity, and the date 'Zittau, den 1. November 1923', followed by two manuscript signatures for Der Bezirksverband der Amtshauptmannschaft and Der Stadtrat respectively. The printer's imprint 'Carl Boes, Zittau' appears at lower right, and an anti-counterfeiting notice is printed vertically along the right margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Zittau's district authority issued this 100-billion Mark note in the autumn of 1923, when hyperinflation had rendered Reichsbank supply entirely inadequate for daily commerce. Notgeld of this denomination was being turned over within hours of issue — shopkeepers were reportedly adjusting prices mid-morning, making yesterday's notes functionally worthless by afternoon. Carl Boes was a local Zittau printer, not a specialist currency house, which is typical of emergency issues at this scale: the Reichsdruckerei was simply not equipped to supply every Amtshauptmannschaft in Saxony.
Lichter and Zwingenberger were district administrative officials, not bank signatories — a distinction that mattered legally if the currency was ever challenged.
