| Reverse description | The reverse is wholly typographic, printed in black ink over the same brown wavy-line guilloche underprint as the obverse, with no pictorial vignettes, coats of arms, or decorative borders beyond the continuing security background. The text is set in centered and justified paragraph format, constituting a formal legal redemption notice specifying the conditions under which the note may be exchanged for treasury notes of the 1923 German Gold Loan or redeemed for an equivalent cash amount at member banks of the Lower Weser banking association. No signatures, seals, serial numbers, or printer's imprint appear on this side. |
