| Obverse description | Typographic design featuring the denomination 1000 MARK in large bold numerals at centre of the field, with an individual serial number above. The circular legend reads C·CONRADTY·ROTHENBACH along the upper periphery and NOTGELD 1922 along the lower periphery, separated by two five-pointed stars at either side. The maker's signature LAUER NÜRNBERG appears in small lettering at the lower left field. The entire design is executed in a plain, utilitarian style consistent with the industrial emergency coinage of the Weimar inflation period. |

| Reverse description | Full-length figure of a bearded workman in work clothes and broad-brimmed hat, standing facing, his right fist raised to his chest and his left arm extended outward with open hand, evoking a gesture of defiance and resilience. The initials S· and F· appear in the lower field flanking the figure. The peripheral legend ALLEN GEWALTEN ZVM TRVTZ SICH ERHALTEN runs around the circumference, a quotation from Goethe's poem conveying the spirit of endurance against all adversities. The design is rendered in a bold, expressionist relief style characteristic of German Notgeld medallic art of the early 1920s. |
