Two circular official seals of the Kreis Herzogtum Lauenburg, each bearing a heraldic eagle, are applied at lower left and right flanking the issuing text, date 'Ratzeburg, den 15.

| Anmerkungen |
Kreis Herzogtum Lauenburg was one of hundreds of German administrative districts that stepped in as an emergency currency issuer during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsbank simply could not supply denominations fast enough to keep pace with collapsing purchasing power. By the time notes in the millions of Marks were being printed, the practical lifespan of any individual piece was measured in days — prices were rising faster than the ink dried.
Ratzeburg, the Kreis seat, had the administrative infrastructure to authorize and distribute this notgeld locally. The 2,000,000 Mark denomination, unremarkable by late-1923 standards, would have been rendered nearly worthless within a fortnight of issue.
