| Beschrijving voorzijde | Thin platinum-white paper with a light brown vertical band at center. The note carries black letterpress text throughout, with a diagonal dark red overprint revaluing the original 5 Mark voucher to 500 Mark and a superimposed blue ink cancellation stamp reading UNGÜLTIG. The overall layout is that of an industrial wage-payment order (Anweisung), issued in the original form of 20 August 1914 and revalidated by overprint dated 1 September 1922. |

Hannoversche Maschinenbau-AG — better known as HANOMAG — was a major industrial concern producing locomotives and heavy machinery, not a financial institution. Like hundreds of German manufacturers during the hyperinflationary spiral of 1922, it was forced to issue its own emergency currency simply to meet weekly payroll, as Reichsbank notes became scarce faster than they could be printed.
This note is an overprint on existing 5 Mark stock — the base note repurposed and restamped to circulate at 500 Mark, a ratio that illustrates how rapidly purchasing power was collapsing by mid-1922. Factory-issued notgeld of this type was redeemable only within a narrow local or corporate ecosystem, and most was returned and destroyed once the issuer settled accounts.
