| Opmerkingen |
The Aachen Chamber of Commerce was among hundreds of German commercial and municipal bodies that issued their own emergency paper during the hyperinflation of 1923 — a period in which the Reichsbank's own presses could not keep pace with devaluation. By mid-1923, three million marks was barely enough for a loaf of bread, and notgeld denominations were climbing so fast that some issues became obsolete before distribution was complete.
Printed locally by Franz Keppler, this note never left the Aachen region in any meaningful circulation sense — Handelskammer issues were quasi-scrip, accepted by participating local merchants rather than as national tender.
