The right, wider panel displays the denomination '20 Millionen Mark' in large Fraktur script over a fine web-pattern underprint, followed by the redemption text, date of 28 August 1923, the title 'Der Oberbürgermeister' and a manuscript signature. |

Rheydt issued this note at the absolute peak of Weimar hyperinflation — 20,000,000 Mark was a denomination that would have been unthinkable eighteen months earlier and was itself obsolete within weeks of printing. The city had no choice but to produce Notgeld at this scale; the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough currency to meet daily wage payments, and municipal authorities across the Rhineland were printing their own emergency issues to fill the gap.
Otto Berger was a local commercial printer, not a specialist security firm. That origin matters — the notes lack the intaglio depth of Reichsdruckerei work and were easy to reproduce.
