Bamberg issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — during the hyperinflationary collapse of 1923, when the Reichsmark lost value so rapidly that municipal and private issuers had to print ever-larger denominations just to cover daily wages. The fifty-million-mark figure here is not exceptional for the period; by November 1923, a single US dollar exchanged for over four trillion marks, and denominations were being rendered obsolete within days of printing.
Local Notgeld from smaller Bavarian cities like Bamberg was typically printed by regional firms on short runs, often on whatever paper stock was available, which accounts for the variation in paper quality and color saturation seen across surviving examples.
