| Opmerkingen |
Geising is a small mining town in the Erzgebirge, the Ore Mountains of Saxony, with a population that never justified a serious banking infrastructure. The 2 Mark note belongs to the enormous wave of municipal Notgeld that flooded Germany in 1918 as the imperial monetary system buckled under wartime metal shortages and public hoarding. Towns issued their own emergency scrip not because they had legal authority to do so, but because commerce demanded some medium of exchange and nobody was stopping them.
The official stamp and countersignature were the only authenticity controls — minimal, easily forged, and entirely dependent on local trust to function.
