Obverse description Brown note printed on a fine guilloche underprint, with elaborate floral border panels in intaglio running along all four edges. The title "Reichsbanknote" appears in Gothic blackletter script across the top, below which the denomination "Ein Tausend Mark" is rendered in large ornate calligraphic lettering. A central rectangular vignette frames the numeral "1000" interlaced with floral motifs, flanked on either side by the red serial number and two circular red wax-style seals of the Reichsbankdirektorium bearing the Imperial Eagle; the date "Berlin, den 1. Juli 1898" and the issuing authority "Reichsbankdirektorium" appear below the vignette, accompanied by facsimile signatures, with the counterfeiting warning text printed twice in small type to the left and right of the central numeral.
