| Opmerkingen |
Pirmasens was a shoe-manufacturing town in the Palatinate, and its municipal government issued this five-billion-mark note during the hyperinflation peak of autumn 1923 — the period when the Reichsbank's own printing operation could no longer keep pace with denomination demands and hundreds of German municipalities, districts, and private companies issued their own emergency currency, known collectively as Notgeld. By this point the billion-mark threshold had become almost meaningless; the Rentenmark reform of November 1923 would soon sweep the entire inflated structure away at a conversion rate of one trillion old marks to one new unit.
Municipal issues of this denomination were typically printed locally on whatever stock was available, which is why paper quality and print registration vary sharply even within a single series.
