Volksbank Ladenburg was a small cooperative savings bank in a town of a few thousand people on the Rhine, and it was issuing nine-zero denominations because the Reichsbank had simply lost control of the money supply by mid-1923. Under the emergency provisions that allowed municipal and private institutions to print notgeld, cooperatives like this one were legally authorized to cover local wage payments when official currency could not arrive fast enough to meet payroll — hyperinflation was advancing faster than the printing presses could follow.
The billion-mark threshold was crossed in August and September 1923. Notes of this size were obsolete within weeks.
