Dirlewang is a small Bavarian market commune — the kind of issuer that rarely appears in German notgeld studies. This 10,000 Mark piece dates from the hyperinflation peak of 1923, when municipalities across Bavaria scrambled to print emergency currency to meet payroll and local trade demand as Reichsbank notes became worthless faster than they could be distributed. That a community this size managed to source watermarked paper is worth noting; most comparable rural issuers used whatever stock was available, watermark or not.
