Zirndorf is a small town in Middle Franconia, best known outside Germany as the home of the Playmobil factory — but in 1923 it was doing what hundreds of German municipalities were forced to do: printing its own emergency currency because the Reichsbank could not supply banknotes fast enough to keep pace with hyperinflation. These municipal issues, collectively called Notgeld, were legal tender only within the issuing locality, which created genuine practical problems for workers who commuted or traded across town lines.
At 100,000 Mark, this note dates to the middle phase of the hyperinflationary spiral — before the truly astronomical denominations of late 1923, when million- and billion-mark notes became necessary within weeks of each other.
