| Opmerkingen |
August Thyssen-Hütte was one of the largest integrated steel operations in Germany, and by mid-1923 the Ruhr industrial firms had been forced into an extraordinary position: printing their own emergency currency because the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough paper money to meet payroll. This note was produced in-house — Thyssendruck was the company's own printing facility, meaning the steel conglomerate was literally manufacturing money alongside iron.
The five-million mark denomination, enormous by prewar standards, was already insufficient within weeks of issue. Notgeld at this level of inflation was often obsolete before the ink dried.
