| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue-grey and dark red on cream paper, divided into two panels by a teal border. The left panel carries a woodcut-style vignette of the twin-towered collegiate church of Landau, rendered in fine letterpress linework with foliage at the base and the initials 'B.S.' of the artist at lower right. The right panel bears the denomination in large Gothic script reading 'Zweihundert Millionen Mark 200 000 000', with a redemption clause, the place and date 'Landau, Pfalz den 1. Sept. 1923', a manuscript signature of the Bürgermeister in red, and a circular official stamp of the Stadtrat Landau in der Pfalz alongside a serial number prefix 'E.No.'. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in dark blue on cream paper. A dense folk-art-style underprint of small square compartments fills the entire field, each cell containing stylised motifs including birds, grape clusters, squirrels, flowers, fruits, and foliage in a naive decorative manner. At the centre, a large cartouche with a serrated border encloses the denomination inscription in bold Gothic lettering, surmounted by a small turret or castle emblem. |
