Opmerkingen

This note was issued jointly by the Kreisausschuss of Recklinghausen district and the municipal magistrates of Recklinghausen and Buer — an unusual dual-authority arrangement that reflects how thoroughly the 1923 hyperinflation had overwhelmed the Reichsbank's capacity to supply adequate currency. Local government bodies across the Ruhr were forced to print their own emergency money, Notgeld, simply to make payroll and keep commerce moving.

The Ruhr occupation by French and Belgian forces, which began in January 1923, hit this coal-mining region with particular severity. The five-million-mark denomination places this note in the accelerating phase of inflation, before denominations climbed into the billions later that same year.
