| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The left third of the note is dominated by a pink guilloche underprint panel with the denomination figure 500 000 repeated at top and bottom, centred on a vignette of the Rheydt municipal coat of arms rendered in dark ink. The right portion carries the title heading in blackletter script alongside handwritten series letter and serial number, the redemption pledge text, and the large denomination in ornate blackletter, dated Rheydt, den 9. August 1923. A manuscript signature of the Oberbürgermeister appears at lower right, with a faint circular official stamp visible at upper right. |

| Anmerkungen |
Rheydt was an industrial textile town in the Rhineland — and also the birthplace of Joseph Goebbels, though that connection postdates this note by decades. In 1923 the town's municipal authority, like hundreds of German Gemeinden, was forced into emergency currency issuance as Reichsbank notes became worthless faster than they could be printed. The 500,000 Mark denomination, unthinkable two years earlier, was by mid-1923 barely enough for a tram fare.
Otto Berger was a local Rheydt printer, not a specialist currency house. That matters — quality control on Notgeld from small commercial printers varied considerably, and paper stock was often whatever was available.
