| Opmerkingen |
Sonneberg issued this one-million Mark note in 1923 as Notgeld — emergency municipal currency printed during the hyperinflationary collapse that made Reichsbank denominations functionally useless within weeks of printing. By mid-1923, local authorities across Germany were authorized to issue their own provisional paper simply to keep wages and commerce moving. Sonneberg, a small Thuringian town known primarily for its toy manufacturing industry, was among hundreds of municipalities that exercised this right.
The one-million Mark denomination, staggering by any earlier standard, was already marginal by the time most such notes reached circulation in August–September 1923. Billion-Mark issues followed within weeks.
