| Opmerkingen |
German district-level notgeld at its most extreme: the Amtshauptmannschaft Glauchau was a Saxon administrative district, and like hundreds of similar bodies across Germany in 1923, it was legally permitted — indeed effectively compelled — to issue its own emergency currency as hyperinflation made Reichsbank supply chronically inadequate. The Rats-Druckerei was Glauchau's municipal print shop, meaning this note was produced entirely within the district it was meant to serve, from authorization through to press.
One million marks sounds extraordinary, but by mid-1923 it was grocery-run money. Notes like this were typically obsolete within weeks of printing.
