| Beschrijving voorzijde | Dark green letterpress Notgeld on cream paper, enclosed within a finely tooled ornamental border of interlocking guilloche and rosette motifs with decorative corner pieces. At centre, a vignette of a standing classical female figure — likely an allegorical representation — is printed in a lighter green underprint, superimposed by the large Gothic-script denomination 'Hunderttausend Mark' in bold blackletter type. The upper portion carries the issuing legend in Fraktur script, while below the vignette the date 'Solingen, 10. Juli 1923' appears alongside an oval city seal of Solingen and the facsimile signature of the Oberbürgermeister; the serial number with series prefix letter is printed vertically along the left margin, accompanied by a circular 'Siegel Stadt Solingen' control stamp. |

Solingen's municipal administration, better known internationally for its cutlery and blade manufacturing, became one of hundreds of German civic authorities forced into emergency currency issuance during the hyperinflation of 1923. The 100,000 Mark denomination, which sounds extraordinary, was already losing purchasing power within days of printing — by August 1923 the Reichsbank's own notes were being issued in the billions, making municipal Notgeld at this level nearly obsolete before it cleared the counters.
Solingen issued multiple Notgeld series across different denominations during this period; this piece belongs to the later high-denomination wave, distinct from the decorative small-change Notgeld of 1920–21 that collectors typically prize. Utility issue, not a collector play.
