Gütersloh's million-mark note is a product of the Weimar hyperinflation peak — by mid-1923, municipal and regional authorities across Germany were printing their own emergency currency (Notgeld) simply because the Reichsbank could not produce legal tender fast enough to keep pace with collapsing purchasing power. The city printed locally, which kept turnaround fast but quality variable.
A million marks sounds extraordinary until you remember that by November 1923 that sum wouldn't buy a postage stamp.
