| Opmerkingen |
One of thousands of Notgeld issues printed during the hyperinflationary spiral of 1923, this 500,000 Mark note from Pößneck reflects the administrative chaos of a period when German municipalities were legally authorized to issue their own emergency currency simply to meet payroll and basic commerce. By the time denominations reached the hundred-thousands, the Reichsmark was losing value faster than notes could be printed and distributed.
C. G. Vogel was a local printer — not a security printing house — pressed into producing circulating currency. The embossed seal was the primary authentication device, a low-tech solution that reveals exactly how thin the margin was between official currency and improvised paper.
