| Opmerkingen |
Buer — now absorbed into Gelsenkirchen — was a mid-sized industrial town in the Ruhr, and like hundreds of German municipalities in late 1923, its city treasury was forced to issue its own emergency currency as the Reichsbank's supply of adequately denominated notes simply could not keep pace with hyperinflation. By the time a billion-mark denomination made any practical sense, it was already nearly worthless: in October and November 1923, a single US dollar was exchanging for hundreds of billions of marks.
Local Notgeld at this scale was printed on whatever stock was available and often within days of authorization. The turnaround between issue date and effective obsolescence was sometimes under a week.
