| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in shades of brown and red on a light pink ground, with an ornate geometric guilloche border incorporating diamond lattice, floral rosettes, and interlaced ribbon motifs. At left, a large engraved vignette presents the heraldic shield of Berlin — a crowned bear passant — set within a shaded rectangular panel. To the right, the denomination EINTAUSEND MARK is set in bold Gothic lettering beneath the heading Stadtkassenschein, with the place and date inscription BERLIN den 11.Okt. 1922 and the issuing authority Magistrat der Reichshauptstadt below; a facsimile signature appears at the foot. The numeral 1000 is repeated in the upper and lower borders as well as vertically along the right stub. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dominated by a detailed cartographic vignette occupying the central field, showing a numbered administrative district map of the city of Berlin as constituted in 1922, with each of the twenty districts individually delineated and named in letterpress. Statistical data panels at upper left record the city's population (Einwohner 3 982 000) and area (Grösse 87 974,61 ha), while a title panel at upper right reads Die Stadtgemeinde BERLIN im Jahre 1922. The entire map is enclosed within a plain ruled border, itself surrounded by a bold anti-counterfeiting legend reading WER DIESEN SCHEIN NACHMACHT ODER VERFÄLSCHT... STRAFGERICHTLICH VERFOLGT WIRD, printed along all four margins. The numeral 1000 appears vertically at left. |

| Opmerkingen |
Berlin issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — during the hyperinflationary spiral of 1922, when the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough notes to meet demand. Municipal and commercial issuers across Germany stepped in to fill the gap. The Magistrat der Reichshauptstadt Berlin, the city's own governing authority, was among the larger and more administratively serious of these issuers, producing notes in high denominations as inflation pushed purchasing power into absurdity.
By late 1922, 1000 Mark was already a modest sum. Within twelve months it would be effectively worthless.
