Opmerkingen

Gonsenheim was an independent municipality just west of Mainz when this note was issued in 1923, during the height of the hyperinflation crisis that was rendering Reichsbank notes obsolete faster than they could be printed. Local authorities across Germany — including small Gemeinden like Gonsenheim — were legally empowered to issue Notgeld to keep commerce functioning, and a half-million Mark denomination reflects how rapidly the floor had dropped out of the currency by mid-1923.

Gonsenheim was incorporated into Mainz in 1930, making the issuing authority itself a historical footnote.
