| Comments |
Dortmund's municipal authority issued this 100 Mark note under the emergency currency provisions that proliferated across German cities in 1922, as the Reichsbank's inability to supply sufficient circulating notes forced local administrations to fill the gap themselves. The joint coverage of both the Stadtkreis Dortmund and Landkreis Hörde — two administratively distinct units — was a practical arrangement common in the Ruhr, where industrial density made coordination across jurisdictions unavoidable.
W. Crüwell was a long-established Dortmund printing firm, which meant the city kept production local rather than contracting to Leipzig or Berlin specialists. By late 1922, hyperinflation was already rendering denominations like this one obsolete within weeks of printing.
