| Obverse description | Brown letterpress Notgeld on cream paper, with a decorative ruled border framing the entire face. At left, a vertical panel contains the Kelheim civic coat of arms — a crowned escutcheon with a rampant lion — set within a scroll cartouche, below which the denomination numerals 2000000 appear on a ribbon and the serial number is printed beneath the word NUMMER. The right portion carries the heading ZAHLUNGSANWEISUNG in bold capitals above the large-type legend ZWEI MILLIONEN MARK, followed by the liability and redemption text, the date Kelheim, 7. Sept. 1923, the issuing authority STADTRAT KELHEIM, and a manuscript signature of the 1. Bürgermeister. The printer's imprint of Graphische Kunstanstalt Heinr. Schiele Regensburg appears at lower left. |

Reichl at lower right. |
