| Opschrift voorzijde | GUTSCHEIN ÜBER M 2000000 2000000 Mark Freie Hansestadt Bremen BREMEN, DEN 17. AUGUST 1923 DIE FINANZDEPUTATION: |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed in the same blue-green intaglio style by Carl Schünemann, the reverse is dominated by the large Gothic text 'Zwei Millionen Mark' across the centre, above which a ribbon banner reads 'Freie Hansestadt Bremen' flanking a standing civic figure. Flanking vignettes depict a tropical harbour scene with a palm tree and ocean liner to the left, and a sailing vessel to the right, evoking Bremen's maritime mercantile identity. A text panel in the lower centre states the conditions of acceptance and validity, with the printer's imprint 'KUPFERTIEFDRUCK CARL SCHÜNEMANN BREMEN' along the bottom margin. |

Bremen's Finanzdeputation issued this 2,000,000 Mark note during the acute phase of Weimar hyperinflation, when municipal and state authorities across Germany were printing emergency Notgeld simply to keep commerce moving — the Reichsbank could not produce denominations fast enough to match the collapsing purchasing power of the mark. By August 1923, two million marks would buy little more than a loaf of bread.
Carl Schünemann was Bremen's dominant commercial printer and handled much of the city-state's inflationary paper across multiple denominations that year. The quick turnaround between design, printing, and release meant quality control was secondary to speed.
