| Opmerkingen |
By mid-1923, German municipal authorities were printing their own emergency currency — Notgeld — because Reichsbank notes were arriving faster than the hyperinflationary spiral could be tracked. Frankfurt am Main was among the larger cities issuing high-denomination paper in-house rather than waiting on central supply. J. Maubach & Co. was a local Frankfurt commercial printer, not a specialist banknote firm, which shows in the production values.
The 500,000 Mark figure, staggering on its face, was already obsolete within weeks. By November 1923, a single US dollar exchanged for roughly 4.2 trillion Marks.
