| Obverse description | Central motif of a flaming torch head occupying the field, rendered in relief. Surrounding the torch, a circular Latin legend reads the issuing authority, regional designation, date, and denomination. The inscription is arranged in full around the periphery, with the denomination expressed in millions of Mark. The overall design conveys the patriotic and emergency character of the issue, typical of German hyperinflationary notgeld coinage of 1923. |
