Emmendingen issued this 5 Mark note under the emergency currency provisions that proliferated across German municipalities after the Reichsbank suspended the obligation to exchange notes for coin in 1914. By 1918 the municipal Notgeld phenomenon had outgrown its original purpose — what began as a response to coin hoarding had become routine local finance, with towns effectively floating short-term debt on the backs of their citizens. Dölter, a local Emmendingen printer, handled production, which places this squarely in the category of hyperlocal issue rather than regionally coordinated emergency currency.
The relatively large denomination for municipal Notgeld of this period is worth noting — most town issues stuck to smaller values where coin shortages were most acute.
