| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is dominated by a large ornate letterpress denomination numeral '500' at the top centre, rendered in an elaborate Gothic-style typeface with decorative internal detailing. Immediately below, the words 'MILLIARDEN MARK' are set in bold serif letters across the full width of the note, all against a fine green and pink guilloche underprint. A text block in German Gothic script occupies the lower central field, stating the redemption conditions and the issuing authority, followed by the place and date 'München, am 26. Oktober 1923' and a manuscript signature. A right-hand coupon panel, separated by a vertical rule, carries the Gutschein heading with an anti-counterfeiting warning in small text, the denomination spelled out as 'Fünfhundert Milliarden' in Gothic blackletter, and a serial number at its foot. |

| Opmerkingen |
This note was issued by the Bavarian branch of the Reich Transport Ministry — the Reichsverkehrsministerium — not by the Reichsbank or any conventional monetary authority. During the hyperinflationary collapse of late 1923, transport ministries, municipalities, factories, and utilities across Germany were legally permitted to issue their own emergency currency (Notgeld) to meet payroll when the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to keep pace with depreciation.
The Reichsbahn connection is operationally significant: railway wages had to be paid weekly, then daily, and denominations escalated so rapidly that notes became worthless before workers could spend them. Five hundred billion marks was briefly a bus fare.
