| Obverse description | Typographically bold Notgeld note printed in dark ink on cream paper, with a double-rule border enclosing the entire design. The issuer's name 'Hessische Landesbank' is rendered in large ornate Fraktur script across the upper portion, flanked on either side by the numeral '5000000' in serif type, with the word 'Notgeldschein' centered between them. The denomination 'Fünf Millionen Mark' dominates the centre in decorative Gothic lettering, beneath which a block of explanatory text in Gothic script states the note's legal tender status within the Volksstaat Hessen, dated Darmstadt, 22. August 1923, with two facsimile signatures of the Direktorium der Hessischen Landesbank; the lower-left corner bears a circular vignette of the Hessian state arms with a crowned lion, while the red serial number and series letter appear at lower right. |
