Landesbank der Provinz Westfalen issued this note during the catastrophic hyperinflation of 1923, when German municipal and regional authorities — lacking sufficient Reichsbank currency — were legally permitted to produce their own emergency money, known as Notgeld. The 2,000,000 Mark denomination reflects conditions in the summer of that year, before inflation spiraled into the billions and trillions by autumn.
The print run of over twelve million notes is substantial for a provincial issuer, suggesting this denomination saw genuine mass circulation in Westphalia rather than serving merely as a stopgap measure. The Landesbank's notes were backed by the province's credit, not gold — a distinction that mattered little when the currency it denominated was collapsing daily.
