| Beschrijving voorzijde | Plain light grey paper ground printed in black letterpress throughout. The heading 'Notgeld der Stadt Buchholz.' runs across the top, with a series letter 'C' to the upper right. The denomination 'Gutschein über 200 Tausend Mark.' is set in a bold Gothic blackletter typeface at centre, overlaid by a red letterpress vignette of the municipal coat of arms. Below, two lines of cautionary text state that the amount is secured with the city council and that counterfeiting is punishable by imprisonment; the place and date 'Buchholz, Sa., 15. August 1923.' appear at lower left alongside a red serial number, with the issuing authority legend 'Der Rat der Stadt.' and a manuscript facsimile signature at lower right. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is occupied by a full-border rectangular vignette printed in olive-green letterpress, presenting a panoramic townscape of Buchholz with rooftops, church spires, and surrounding wooded hills rendered in a woodcut-like style. Superimposed at centre in large bold red numerals is the denomination figure '200,000', providing a strong chromatic contrast against the muted green underprint. |

| Opmerkingen |
Buchholz in Saxony was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced to print their own emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsmark collapsed so rapidly that the Reichsbank could not supply notes in denominations large enough for daily transactions. By the time 200,000-Mark notes were being issued at the local level, that sum was insufficient for a week's groceries — the denomination itself is a snapshot of the velocity of the collapse rather than any particular monetary ambition on the council's part.
Municipal issues like this were printed on whatever equipment and stock the local printer had available, which is why paper quality and impression consistency vary so dramatically across surviving examples from the same series.
