Ahrweiler's Kreisausschuss — the district administrative committee — issued this 2,000,000 Mark note during the summer of 1923, when Reichsbank currency was losing value faster than it could be physically printed and distributed to rural areas. Local authorities across Germany were legally permitted to issue emergency currency, Notgeld, precisely because central supply had collapsed. Eduard Kirfel was a local Ahrweiler printer, not a specialist security printer, which is exactly what you'd expect at this denomination and this moment.
By August 1923, two million marks bought roughly what a single mark had bought eighteen months earlier.
