Schönheide is a small textile-industry village in the Erzgebirge, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1923, its local treasury — the Gemeindekasse — was forced to print its own emergency currency simply to pay workers and conduct daily commerce. The Reichsbank could not supply denominations fast enough as hyperinflation rendered yesterday's money worthless overnight. By August 1923, a million marks was roughly the price of a loaf of bread.
Municipal notgeld at this denomination was typically authorized for only days or weeks before being superseded by higher-value issues. Signed by the treasurer Winzer, whose name appears on several Schönheide emissions from this period.
