Herne was a mid-sized Ruhr industrial city, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1923, it was forced to issue its own emergency currency — Notgeld — when the Reichsbank simply could not print fast enough to keep pace with hyperinflation. By the time 500,000 Mark denominations were necessary for routine transactions, the figure had already become almost meaningless; notes of this face value were being superseded within weeks.
Wilh. Ruhfus was a Dortmund commercial printer that handled Notgeld contracts for several Westphalian municipalities during this period. The dry seal was the city's primary authentication measure, applied after printing.
