| Obverse description | Emergency note (Notgeld) issued by the Deutsche Reichsbahn, Berlin, during the hyperinflationary period of 1923. The face carries the denomination '500 000 000 Mark' in bold letterpress, alongside the issuing authority's name and requisite authorization text. The overall layout is typographic in character, with minimal decorative elements consistent with the utilitarian emergency currency production of the era. |

The watermark of interlaced squares is visible when held to light, serving as the primary security feature of this wartime-era emergency currency. |
