Pirmasens in the Palatinate was Germany's shoe-manufacturing capital, and its municipal treasury issued this five-million mark note at the absolute peak of the 1923 hyperinflation — a period when denominations escalated so rapidly that notes became obsolete within days of printing. Municipal and regional authorities across Germany were legally permitted to issue their own emergency currency, Notgeld, precisely because the Reichsbank could not physically print fast enough to meet demand.
The DeNG reference places this within a well-documented Pirmasens series, but the five-million mark face value marks it as a late-phase issue, printed when that sum was already approaching worthlessness on arrival.
