| Opmerkingen |
Memmingen's 20 Mark notgeld was issued during the acute small-change and confidence crisis that gripped German municipalities in the final year of the war and its immediate aftermath. As central bank notes were hoarded and metal coinage vanished from circulation, hundreds of German towns commissioned local emergency currency — Memmingen among them. Gebrüder Parcus in Munich was a natural choice: the firm handled a substantial share of Bavarian municipal printing work during this period and had the capacity to turn around jobs quickly.
The 20 Mark denomination places this firmly in the higher-value notgeld range, more transactional instrument than the small-denomination collector pieces that flooded the market by 1921.
