Mühlhausen in Thuringia is better remembered as the town where Thomas Müntzer led the 1525 peasant uprising than as a center of wartime finance, but by late 1918 its municipal magistrate was doing what hundreds of German towns were doing: issuing Notgeld to compensate for the catastrophic shortage of small-denomination Reichsbank coin that wartime metal requisitioning had created. Municipal paper of this type had no backing beyond local administrative authority.
The 5 Mark denomination sits at the upper end of what most town magistracies were authorized to issue independently — anything larger typically required provincial or state sanction.
