| Opmerkingen |
Hattingen-Ruhr was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced into emergency currency issuance during the hyperinflation peak of 1923, when the Reichsbank could not supply adequate denominations fast enough for daily commerce. These Notgeld issues at the million-mark level weren't speculative novelties — they were functional, necessary, and often printed on whatever stock was available locally, sometimes newsprint or recycled paper.
The five-million mark denomination places this squarely in the late summer or autumn of 1923, when prices were doubling in days. Most municipal issues at this level had circulation lifespans measured in weeks before becoming worthless.
