| Opmerkingen |
Eschweiler and Stolberg were neighboring industrial towns in the Rhineland, both heavily tied to coal mining and non-ferrous metallurgy. During the hyperinflation crisis of 1923, municipal and corporate bodies across Germany issued their own emergency currency — Notgeld — to compensate for the chronic shortage of officially printed money at usable denominations. A joint issue between two municipalities was not unheard of but remained uncommon; it reflects the practical administrative overlap between towns that shared both employers and workers.
By the time 20-million-mark denominations were necessary, the Reichsbank's printing infrastructure had simply lost the race against its own monetary collapse.
