| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in grey-green and black on plain paper, the obverse is framed by an ornate letterpress border of interlaced foliate and diamond motifs. The issuer's title 'Landkreis Neuß' appears in a Gothic blackletter panel at the top, below which the denomination 'Fünfhunderttausend Mark' is set in large bold Fraktur script against a fine guilloche underprint. A legal tender clause in smaller Fraktur type, the issue date 'Neuß, 15. Aug. 1923', a manuscript signature of the Landrat on behalf of the Kreisausschuss, and the denomination repeated as 'Mark 500 000 Mark' in the lower border panel complete the design. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is printed in a uniform grey-green tone and carries no text beyond the central denomination. The design is entirely typographic and ornamental: a large diamond-shaped cartouche with elaborate scrollwork arabesques at its upper and lower points frames the central horizontal band, in which '500000 Mark' is rendered in bold white-reserve Gothic lettering flanked by six-pointed star devices. The background is filled with fine horizontal line guilloche work, enclosed within a multi-rule and sawtooth outer border. |

| Opmerkingen |
Landkreis Neuss was one of hundreds of German administrative districts that issued their own emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsmark collapsed so rapidly that local authorities could not wait for Berlin to supply adequate denominations. The 500,000 Mark figure, which would have seemed staggering in 1921, was already insufficient for basic transactions by mid-1923 — the Rentenmark stabilization in November of that year rendered the entire series worthless within weeks of issue.
B. Kühlen was a commercial printer in Mönchengladbach, not a specialist security printer, which is exactly what distinguishes district-level notgeld from centrally issued currency.
