| Opmerkingen |
Frankfurt was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced to print their own emergency currency — Notgeld — as the Reichsbank failed to keep pace with hyperinflation in 1923. By the time denominations like this one reached circulation, the figure printed on them was obsolete within days. The Osterrieth press in Frankfurt handled a significant volume of municipal emergency work during this period, turning around new denominations at a pace that would have been unthinkable even a year earlier.
Ten billion marks. In November 1923, a single loaf of bread cost roughly 80 billion.
