| Opmerkingen |
The Sächsische Bank zu Dresden was one of four private note-issuing banks permitted to operate in the German Empire after unification in 1871 — a deliberate political compromise that allowed Saxon financial institutions to retain limited issuance rights while the Reichsbank gradually absorbed monetary authority. This 500 Mark note, issued just three years after the new Mark replaced the Thaler, circulated during the chaotic transition period when merchants were still mentally converting between currencies.
Giesecke & Devrient, headquartered in Leipzig and already the dominant security printer in Saxony, held a natural advantage in supplying the Dresden bank. The Saxon note-issuing privilege survived until 1924.
