| Reverse description | Printed entirely in brown on cream paper, the reverse centres on a large cartouche with shaped baroque outline set against a fine guilloche mesh underprint, bearing the denomination 'Fünfhundert Millionen Mark' in two lines of ornamental script. The cartouche is flanked and surrounded by a dense arrangement of oak leaves and acorns rendered in a naturalistic letterpress style, filling all four corners and the border zone. A vertical right-hand stub panel carries the abbreviated denomination '500.000.000' in large upright numerals. |
