| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central vignette within an oval border presents a medieval court scene set anno 1400, with several robed figures gathered around a table in what appears to be a tribunal or judicial proceeding; flanking vignettes at left and right depict scenes of corporal punishment, including a figure being raised and a gallows, referencing the historical Oberfehmstuhl of Westphalia in Arnsberg. The denomination '2 Mark' appears in bold Gothic letterpress at each upper corner, with the issuer title 'Sparkasse — Arnsberg' across the top, all printed in black on an ochre-toned underprint. The lower portion carries the payment text and issue date in a sans-serif typeface, with a manuscript signature of the Magistrat at lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Arnsberg's municipal savings bank — the Sparkasse — was among hundreds of German local institutions forced into emergency currency issuance during the postwar inflationary spiral, when Reichsbank notes were hoarded and small-denomination coinage had all but vanished from daily commerce. This 2 Mark note is one of the more locally rooted pieces of that phenomenon: printed by F. W. Becker right in Arnsberg rather than farmed out to one of the major Leipzig or Berlin printing houses, and engraved by J. Schweriner — a detail that reflects the ambition some municipalities had to produce something more than a typewritten chit.
The watermark security feature is worth noting; many Notgeld issues of this period dispensed with it entirely.
