Werden an der Ruhr was a small independent municipality — it wasn't absorbed into Essen until 1929 — which gives this note its slightly anomalous character: a town of modest size issuing million-mark emergency currency under its own civic authority. This was standard Notgeld practice during the hyperinflation peak of 1923, when the Reichsbank's output simply could not keep pace with the collapsing purchasing power of the mark, and hundreds of German municipalities, firms, and institutions printed their own stop-gap issues.
Holub of Essen handled a considerable volume of regional Notgeld work during this period, printing for multiple Ruhr-area issuers within the same tight window of months.
