| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Letterpress Notgeld in the Art Nouveau manner, framed by a decorative scrollwork and floral border printed in red and black. At left, the denomination '2 Mark' appears in bold blackletter script within a yellow arch panel, beside a smaller cartouche noting that Dr. Eisenbarth lies buried at the St. Aegidii Church; the central vignette presents the itinerant quack physician Johann Andreas Eisenbarth in period costume — tall dark hat, round spectacles, lace collar, and red coat — holding a staff and scroll against a backdrop of the Hann. Münden townscape. The issuer's name 'Hannov. Münden' is set in large decorative blackletter at lower centre, with the printer's credit 'DRUCK: SCHWARZ, LINDENBERG.' below the outer border. |

The central scene shows Eisenbarth in animated pose, wearing his characteristic tall hat and red coat, administering a remedy to a seated patient at left, while a collapsed figure beside a bottle labelled '100 Opium' lies at right with a church tower of Hann. Münden visible in the background. A text cartouche at the lower margin carries a humorous verse in blackletter script referencing the night-watchman and ten pounds of opium. |

| Anmerkungen |
Hannoversch Münden's 2 Mark Notgeld was issued during the acute coin shortage that gripped German municipalities in the early 1920s, before hyperinflation rendered such small denominations irrelevant. The city — known for sitting at the confluence of three rivers and famously described by Alexander von Humboldt as one of the most beautifully situated towns in the world — produced this note through J. Adolf Schwarz of Lindenberg im Allgäu, a printer heavily engaged in the Notgeld trade across southern and central Germany during this period.
The five-variant structure indicated by the reference (578.1-5/5) suggests a series likely differentiated by reverse vignette or text, a common collector-targeting device municipalities used openly by 1921 to generate surplus revenue beyond genuine monetary need.
