| 背面描述 | The reverse is printed in red and green on white paper, centred on a letterpress vignette of a modest two-storey timber-framed building with a large tree to its right, identified by the caption 'Bild 1.' as the first image in a series. A decorative ribbon banner at the top bears the inscription 'Die älteste deutsche Baugewerkschule!' (The oldest German building trades school). The town arms of Holzminden appear at lower left and a mason's guild shield at lower right, while the lower border carries the inscription 'Holzminden 1830–38' in red letterpress; the entire composition is framed by bold red foliate scrollwork. |

Holzminden is a small town on the Weser River in Lower Saxony, and its municipal notgeld was a direct product of the coin shortage that gripped Germany following the First World War. By 1921 the crisis had deepened enough that hundreds of municipalities — including towns with no particular financial infrastructure — were authorizing their own emergency paper. Gebrüder Jänecke in Hannover was one of the more prolific regional printers handling these contracts, producing notgeld for numerous Lower Saxony issuers during this period.
The 2 Mark denomination sits at the upper end of the municipal notgeld range, where redemption guarantees were increasingly difficult to enforce as inflation accelerated through 1921 and into 1922.
