| Comments |
Brandenburg's municipal associations were among dozens of regional bodies that resorted to emergency money-printing during the hyperinflation peak of late 1923, when the Reichsbank simply could not supply denominations large enough for daily transactions. This note's use as a coffee shop voucher reflects how granular the crisis became — ordinary hospitality businesses required their own liquidity instruments because change-making had become practically impossible.
One hundred billion marks. By November 1923, that sum wouldn't reliably buy a newspaper.
