The central vignette, rendered in a woodcut style, shows a group of armoured medieval soldiers and citizens escorting a prisoner through a wooded landscape with a church tower visible in the background. A two-part blackletter inscription in the upper and lower borders provides the historical caption relating to the capture of Heine and his transport to Pritzwalk.

Anmerkungen

Pritzwalk is a small town in Brandenburg, and its Stadthausskasse — the municipal treasury — issued this 2 Mark note during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Germany in 1921–1922. Inflation had driven coins out of circulation by hoarding and melting, forcing hundreds of municipalities to print their own emergency money. This is Notgeld in its most purely functional form: a local government covering a gap the Reichsbank could not.

The DeNG reference places this within the ninth or tenth variant of the Pritzwalk series, suggesting the municipality returned to press multiple times as demand persisted.
