Pirmasens was a shoe-manufacturing town in the Palatinate, and its municipal authority — like hundreds of German local governments in 1923 — was forced to issue its own emergency currency when the Reichsbank could not supply denominations large enough for daily transactions. By the time this 20-million-Mark note was printed, that figure bought roughly a loaf of bread, if that.
Municipal Notgeld of this denomination was typically printed locally on whatever press and stock were available, which is why paper quality and registration vary so dramatically within the same series. Pirmasens examples are not among the more heavily documented issues from the hyperinflation peak, making precise dating within the August–November 1923 window difficult without the specific issue date.
