| Obverse description | The central vignette presents the heraldic arms of the City of Jever — a shield supported by two rampant lions — rendered in a bold woodcut style against a pink vertically-striped underprint. Flanking side panels in olive-green carry ornamental scrollwork alongside the denomination numerals '2 M' in red, with the issuer name 'Stadt Jever' inscribed at the top left and right corners. A lower text panel in Gothic script contains the payment obligation text, with a blank date line for manuscript completion. |
