The Deutsche Reichsbahn began issuing its own emergency currency in 1923 because the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to meet payroll demands. Railway workers needed to be paid — daily, in some cases — and industrial employers across Germany were authorized to produce notgeld as a stopgap. The Reichsbahn's issues are among the more institutionally credible of the lot, backed by a state enterprise with real assets rather than a municipal treasurer scrambling for paper.
By the time 200-million-mark denominations were necessary, the inflation had already destroyed most intuitive sense of value. This note would have bought roughly a loaf of bread in mid-October 1923 — and nothing at all two weeks later.
