| Opmerkingen |
Stuttgart's Stadtkasse issued this 2,000,000 Mark note at the height of the hyperinflation summer of 1923, when municipal and regional authorities across Germany were forced to print their own emergency currency — Notgeld — simply to meet payroll and keep local commerce moving. The Reichsbank could not supply denominations fast enough to match the collapsing purchasing power of the mark.
By August 1923, two million marks was roughly the cost of a loaf of bread. Within weeks it would be meaningless.
