Two text panels occupy the upper corners, stating acceptance by all city treasuries on the left and the expiry date on the right. The issue date and serial number appear at lower left, with the city council's facsimile signature at lower right. |

Gera's 2 Mark notgeld of 1921 belongs to the inflationary emergency currency wave that swept German municipalities as the Reichsbank struggled to keep small denominations in circulation. Karl Schneider of Erfurt was a prolific designer of Thuringian notgeld during this period, contributing to dozens of local issues across the region.
The print date of 30 April 1945 is almost certainly a catalog or transcription error — that date is the day of Hitler's death and falls well outside any plausible production window for 1921 Weimar-era notgeld.
