Opmerkingen

Bad Wildungen, a spa town in Hesse-Nassau, was among hundreds of German municipalities forced to print their own emergency currency during the hyperinflation of 1923, when Reichsmark notes lost value faster than the Reichsdruckerei could supply them. The Gemeindevorstand — the town's executive council — issued this quarter Festmark note denominated in Buchenholz, literally beechwood, with the currency value tied to a quantity of firewood rather than to a monetary unit. Wood-backed Notgeld was a regional solution in forested central Germany, where timber was a more reliable store of value than paper.

Paul Pusch was a local printer, not a security specialist, and the official stamp was the only barrier against counterfeiting.
