| Opmerkingen |
The Arbeitgeber-Vereinigung für Düsseldorf und Umgegend — the employers' association for Düsseldorf and its surroundings — issued emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923, a period when the Reichsmark collapsed so rapidly that private organizations, municipalities, and industrial firms had no choice but to print their own Notgeld to meet payroll. By mid-1923, a single U.S. dollar was worth hundreds of thousands of marks, rendering Reichsbank supply perpetually inadequate.
Employer associations issuing wage-payment scrip was a practical solution to a logistical crisis, not a financial one. Workers needed something — anything — to buy bread before the exchange rate shifted again by afternoon.
