| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in brown on a pale grey guilloche underprint, the obverse is typographically composed in a bold Fraktur (blackletter) script throughout. A large ornate initial 'H' with elaborate scrollwork anchors the denomination text 'Hundert Millionen Mark' across the centre, while the vertical left margin carries '100 Millionen' in large numerals alongside the serial number. The issuing authority text, place of issue 'Münster i. Westf.' and date '11. August 1923' are set in smaller Fraktur below, surmounted by the heading 'Westfälisches Notgeld', with three manuscript signatures of the Direktion der Landesbank der Provinz Westfalen at the foot. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Landesbank der Provinz Westfalen was one of dozens of regional institutions authorized to issue emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to meet demand. By the time 100-million-mark denominations were in circulation — August 1923 — the figure was already becoming inadequate within days of issue. Municipalities, savings banks, and provincial lenders all stepped in under the Notgeld framework, producing notes that were legally valid for local transactions but carried no guarantee of longer redemption.
The Münster printing origin is consistent with the bank's Westphalian administrative seat.
