| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in red, black, and grey, with an ornate foliate and ribbon border. At the top, a Gothic script legend in red announces the note as a Jubiläums-Gutschein issued for the 1000th anniversary of the city of Quedlinburg. A central oval vignette presents a panoramic view of the town skyline with figures in festive costume in the foreground, while to the left a female figure in traditional dress holds a garland and to the right a uniformed herald holds a proclamation scroll bearing the denomination and validity dates of 22–23 April 1922. A caption in Gothic script at the foot reads 'Es grüßen die lustigen Münzenberger', and the printer's imprint 'H. Meyerding Quedlinburg' appears below the border. |
