| Obverse description | Green letterpress Notgeld note printed on plain paper, with a large guilloche wave underprint radiating from the centre occupying most of the face. A bold Fraktur denomination legend "Fünfhundert Millionen Mark" dominates the upper centre, surmounted by the issuing authority title "Aushilfsschein der Stadt Altona" in gothic script. The left margin carries a large green watermark-style monogram vignette; two circular embossed seals of the Stadt Altona appear at lower centre and lower right, flanking the date "Altona, den 12. Oktober 1923" and the authorisation clause, below which three manuscript facsimile signatures appear above the printer's imprint "H. Becker Altona-Ottensen". |
