DescriptionA sheet of bonds with 14 different proofs of stocks in German Marks. On a light green background, there are 13 identical rectangles equally spaced outlining their worth of 50,000 Marks. The text is black and the dates written on these 13 rectangles start in Juli [July] 1923, and then interchangeably go from Januar [January] 1924 to Juli 1924 etc. until Juli 1929. An emboldened title is the center in German and the identifying number is "No. 453459." Below this are hand-written signatures at the bottom. The left side of the rectangles contains a circular stamp with a heraldic device in the center. One more rectangle is above these 13 and is a larger size taking up the width of the sheet. This has a German title at the top and identifies that the sheet is for 50,000 Marks. The reverse contains detailed information on the conditions for these bonds.On View
