Chemnitz printed its own emergency currency — Notgeld — through a local firm rather than routing requisitions through the Reichsdruckerei, which was itself overwhelmed in mid-1923. Pickenhahn & Sohn, a Chemnitz commercial printer, produced multiple denominations for the city council as hyperinflation forced municipalities across Germany to issue their own notes simply to meet weekly payrolls.
The embossed stamp served as the primary security measure — straightforward to apply, difficult to fake with ordinary commercial equipment. By August 1923, the 100,000,000 Mark denomination had become routine small change.
