| Opmerkingen |
Oberhessen was one of the Prussian provinces issuing its own emergency currency during the hyperinflation peak of 1923, when the Reichsbank could not print fast enough to meet demand. The Provinzialkasse Gießen — essentially the provincial treasury — had legal standing to issue notgeld at this denomination, which by mid-1923 represented almost nothing in purchasing power. A million marks was a bus fare, briefly, before it wasn't even that.
Brühl in Gießen was a regional printer pressed into service like dozens of similar firms across Germany that year, producing notes in days rather than weeks. Overprinting and rapid reissue at higher denominations were common for this series.
