| Reverse description | The reverse carries a detailed line-engraved vignette of Schloss Benrath, the Baroque Electoral pleasure palace, rendered in fine crosshatched letterpress with flanking trees and a formal forecourt. The numeral "5.000.000" is set in large outlined figures across the upper register, flanked by six-pointed star ornaments at each corner. Below the architectural vignette, a block of text in Kurrent script states the redemption undertaking, dated Benrath, 7 September 1923, and bears the facsimile signature of the Bürgermeister. |
