Königssteele was a small industrial municipality in the Ruhr, absorbed into the city of Essen in 1929. Like hundreds of German communes in 1923, it issued its own notgeld not out of monetary ambition but sheer necessity — the Reichsbank could not print fast enough to keep pace with hyperinflation that was doubling prices every few days by mid-year. Municipal and corporate issuers filled the gap, often with whatever printing resources were locally available.
At one million marks, this note was already obsolete within weeks of issue. By November 1923 the exchange rate hit 4.2 trillion marks to the dollar.
