Opmerkingen

Genthin is a small town in the Magdeburg district, and like hundreds of German municipalities in the summer and autumn of 1923, its Magistrat was forced into the currency-printing business by the complete breakdown of Reichsbank supply chains. At the hyperinflation peak, local authorities couldn't wait for centrally printed notes — denominations became obsolete faster than they could be shipped. Herm. Haack, a local printer with no particular banknote pedigree, produced this note entirely within the town.

Five million marks sounds extraordinary; by late 1923 it was bus fare.
