Opmerkingen

The Deutsch-Asiatische Bank was founded in 1889 by a consortium of German banks to facilitate trade finance across East Asia, with branches in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Yokohama, and Tsingtau among others. These dollar-denominated notes were issued for circulation in the treaty port economy, where the Mexican silver dollar and its successors set the unit of account — hence the dollar denomination rather than anything tied to the Mark.

The Tsingtau branch became the de facto issuing center after Germany's seizure of Jiaozhou Bay in 1898. When Japanese forces took Tsingtau in November 1914, the bank's local operations collapsed. Notes from this series found still circulating after that date were effectively stranded obligations.
