| Opmerkingen |
Phoenix AG was one of the major Ruhr coal and steel combines, and like dozens of industrial firms during the hyperinflation peak of mid-to-late 1923, it issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — to pay workers when the Reichsbank simply could not print and distribute denominations fast enough to keep pace with collapsing purchasing power. A 50-million Mark note that would have seemed obscene in early 1923 was, by August, barely enough for a loaf of bread.
Greven & Bechtold in Cologne were a commercial printing house pressed into high-volume emergency work during this period, not specialist security printers.
