Opmerkingen

Stadt Kiel issued this note at the absolute peak of the German hyperinflation spiral — by late 1923, municipal and regional authorities across Germany had been issuing their own emergency currency (Notgeld) for years, but the denominations had become grotesque. Fifty billion marks would have been a meaningful wage or a loaf of bread depending on the week it was spent.

H. O. Persiehl in Hamburg was a commercial printer, not a specialist banknote firm, which reflects how completely the crisis had exhausted conventional security printing capacity. Bundesdruckerei and similar houses simply could not keep pace with the demand for new high-denomination paper.
