| Obverse description | Orange-toned Notgeld issued in two vertical panels: the left panel carries the municipal coat of arms of Rheydt — a heraldic shield surmounted by a turreted crown, with a quartered field and a cross at the base — accompanied by the series and serial number above and the issuer legend below, all in Fraktur blackletter. The right, wider panel displays the denomination '20 Millionen Mark' in large Fraktur script over a fine web-pattern underprint, followed by the redemption text, date of 28 August 1923, the title 'Der Oberbürgermeister' and a manuscript signature. |

| Reverse description | Plain orange paper reverse divided into two horizontal registers. The upper portion bears a lightly printed ghost image of the municipal coat of arms of Rheydt as a large watermark-style underprint, with the issuer name 'Stadt Rheydt' in bold Fraktur flanking the coat of arms vignette. The lower register is bordered by sawtooth guilloche bands and carries the denomination repeated on both sides — '20 000 000 Mark' and 'Mark 20 000 000' — separated by a central star ornament, all printed in dark ink on an orange ground. |
