| Opmerkingen |
Kassel's municipal administration, like hundreds of German cities in 1923, issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — as the Reichsbank's hyperinflationary spiral made official notes functionally worthless before they could even be distributed. By the time denominations reached 100,000 Mark, the figure represented hours, not days, of purchasing power. The Gotthelft firm, a long-established Kassel printer, produced these locally rather than waiting on central supply chains that had completely broken down.
The 100,000 Mark threshold is significant: it marks the phase when municipal issuers were still printing six-figure notes before the crisis pushed into the billions within weeks.
