Obverse description Printed in reddish-brown on cream paper, the obverse carries a central industrial vignette of the August Thyssen steelworks interior, with workers and machinery rendered in an engraved style across the full width of the note. At centre, an ornate cartouche bears the interlaced 'AT' monogram of August Thyssen-Hütte within a decorative wreath surround. The denomination 'HUNDERTTAUSEND MARK' is set in bold letterpress above the vignette, flanked at top by '100000 GUTSCHEIN 100000', while an embossed dry seal of the Thyssen company appears at upper left.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in two tones — reddish-brown underprint with a dark grey-black primary layer — and consists entirely of ornamental geometric guilloche work. A central oval medallion contains an armoured knightly figure above a heraldic shield, enclosed within densely patterned scrollwork borders. The numeral '100000' appears twice horizontally at top and bottom, and twice vertically along each side, all set within the elaborately structured decorative frame.
