| Opmerkingen |
Zweibrücken's 100-million Mark notgeld dates from August or September 1923, when Reichsbank currency was losing value so rapidly that municipal and commercial authorities across Germany were forced to print their own emergency denominations just to make payroll. At that magnitude — nine zeros — the note wasn't circulating in any meaningful retail sense; it was a wage instrument, a stopgap for a week or a day before the figure became meaningless again.
The official stamp is the only security feature, which tells you everything about the urgency of production. Counterfeiting wasn't the concern — obsolescence was.
