| Opmerkingen |
Bingen am Rhein was one of hundreds of German municipalities forced into emergency currency production during the hyperinflation of 1923, when Reichsbank notes were losing value faster than they could be printed and distributed. This 500,000 Mark note — an enormous sum just two years earlier, pocket change by the autumn of 1923 — was produced locally by L. J. Pennrich Nachf., a Bingen printing firm, which kept turnaround times short when denominations were being superseded within weeks.
The single security feature was an official municipal stamp, the authenticity of which rested entirely on administrative trust rather than any technical barrier to counterfeiting. Signed per procurationem by Lippert.
