| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The left panel carries the municipal arms of Kreuznach — a merloned tower above a quartered shield bearing crosses and a chequered pattern — flanked above and below by decorative sunburst ornaments, with the denomination '100000' and the issuer legend 'Stadt Kreuznach' printed in Gothic script. The right panel, separated by a wavy-rule border column, presents the Notgeld text in Fraktur typeface, headed by the series letter and serial number, followed by the denomination 'Hunderttausend Mark' in large display script. An official circular embossed stamp of the municipality is applied to the lower centre, accompanied by a manuscript signature of the Bürgermeister and the place-and-date line 'Kreuznach, den 13. Juli 1923'. |

| Anmerkungen |
Kreuznach was one of hundreds of German municipalities that resorted to emergency currency — Notgeld — during the hyperinflationary spiral of 1923, when the Reichsmark's collapse made official denominations functionally useless almost as soon as they were printed. By mid-1923, 100,000 Mark was barely enough for a loaf of bread, and municipal authorities were printing new denominations weekly just to keep pace.
The embossed seal was the city's primary authentication device — a practical choice when sophisticated printing infrastructure wasn't available locally. Worth noting that Kreuznach-issued Notgeld from this period is reasonably common in collections, as municipal issues were frequently saved by contemporaries who recognized even then that they were witnessing something historically abnormal.
