One of hundreds of Notgeld issues authorized by German district administrations during the hyperinflation of 1923, this note was issued by the Kreisausschuß — the district committee — of Landkreis Bochum, the rural administrative district surrounding the industrial city rather than the city itself. The distinction matters: Bochum city had its own separate issues, and confusing the two is common.
Five million marks sounds staggering, but by mid-1923 it was barely adequate for a week's groceries. Notes like this were printed and spent within days of issue, which is precisely why undamaged survivors are rarer than the high surviving quantities of city-issued Notgeld from the same period.
