Mönchengladbach was among hundreds of German municipalities that issued their own emergency currency — Notgeld — during the hyperinflation of 1923, when the Reichsmark collapsed so rapidly that the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to meet daily demand. By the time notes of this denomination were circulating, five million marks would have bought little more than a loaf of bread, and the purchasing power would be halved again within days.
The watermarked paper is worth noting — most municipal Notgeld of this period was printed on whatever stock was available, making the use of security paper here slightly unusual for a city issue.
