| Opmerkingen |
Frankenthal issued this 100-billion-Mark note in the autumn of 1923, when Weimar hyperinflation had so thoroughly destroyed the Reichsmark that municipal and private entities across Germany were printing their own emergency currency — Notgeld — simply to make payroll and run basic commerce. By October 1923, a single US dollar was worth roughly 4.2 trillion Marks. A note at this denomination wasn't extravagant; it was a bus fare.
The sole security measure was an official municipal stamp, which tells you everything about the speed and desperation of production. Rentenmark stabilization in November 1923 rendered the entire series worthless within weeks of printing.
