The highest denomination of the first issue of banknotes of the Free City of Danzig. The issue was dated October 1922.
The 1,000 marks were made twice at the turn of a few months (the second issue was made as early as March 1923). The result of such a short time was the use of the prepared layout with some changes. The 1922 banknotes, in addition to a different color scheme, have more security features - the numerator is doubled, and a dry seal (instead of a red overprint) is placed in the field under the coat of arms of Gdansk.
