| Opmerkingen |
Kreis Wetzlar was a rural administrative district in Hesse-Nassau, and like hundreds of German counties in the summer and autumn of 1923, its Kreiskommunalkasse — the district's communal treasury — was forced to print its own emergency currency when Reichsbank notes became functionally worthless faster than they could be shipped. The five-million mark denomination places this note in the mid-phase of the hyperinflation spiral, before denominations climbed into the billions and trillions by November of that year.
Scharfes Druckereien was a local Wetzlar printer, not a specialist security firm. That distinction matters: notgeld from district-level cashiers printed locally shows far less consistency in ink quality and paper stock than issues from municipal treasuries that contracted Frankfurt or Berlin printers.
