| Opmerkingen |
By late 1923, German municipal authorities were printing their own emergency currency simply to meet payroll — the Reichsbank could not supply notes fast enough to keep pace with hyperinflation. Aachen's Stadt- und Landkreis issued this 2 Trillion Mark note under dual signature: one for the city's Oberbürgermeister, countersigned by the chairman of the district committee, reflecting the unusual joint municipal-rural authority structure specific to this administrative unit.
The two-signature arrangement wasn't bureaucratic formality — it was a legal requirement of the joint issuing body, and notes missing either stamp were routinely refused at local businesses.
