| Opmerkingen |
Forst an der Neisse was a significant textile manufacturing town, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1923, the Magistrat issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — because Reichsbank notes simply couldn't be printed fast enough to keep pace with hyperinflation. At the 50,000 Mark denomination, this note was already mid-tier by the time it circulated; within weeks of similar issues, denominations climbed into the billions.
E. Hoene was a local Forst printer, not a specialist banknote firm. That matters: municipal Notgeld from in-town printers shows more variation in impression quality and paper stock than issues contracted to Leipzig or Berlin trade printers.
