| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Orange and purple letterpress note with a fine guilloche underprint across the entire field. At centre, a radiating sunburst vignette surrounds the Düren municipal coat of arms — a tower above a rampant lion — with the watermark-style inscription 'Stadt Düren' visible through the underprint. The denomination 'Fünfundzwanzig Millionen Mark' is rendered in bold Gothic script across the middle, beneath which a block of text states the note's backing by Reichsschatzanweisungen and its acceptance by municipal and savings banks of Kreis Düren. The issuing authority line 'Die Stadtgemeinde Düren haftet für die Einlösung' appears above the date 'Düren, den 8. August 1923' and the signature of the Oberbürgermeister, with a serial number in the lower left. |

A broad horizontal orange band crosses the centre of the note, bearing the bold Gothic numeral denomination '25 Millionen' in black ink. |

Düren issued this 25-million-mark note in the late summer of 1923, squarely within the period of German hyperinflation when municipal and corporate authorities were legally permitted — in fact, practically required — to print their own emergency currency, or Notgeld, to meet payroll and daily commerce. The Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough. Denominations that would have been unimaginable a year earlier were routine by August.
The Merkelbach reference places this within a documented series for the Stadtgemeinde, suggesting coordinated municipal issuance rather than a one-off emergency print. By November 1923, the Rentenmark reform rendered the entire series worthless overnight.
