Germany-Notgeld Banknotes Catalog
The history of banknotes in Germany is fascinating and reflects the country's political and economic changes over time. From the Notgeld to today's euro, German paper money has undergone numerous transformations, each with its own history and significance.
Notgeld and historical banknotes
During World War I and the hyperinflation of the 1920s, Germany experienced the phenomenon of the Notgeld, or "emergency money." These banknotes, issued by cities, companies and even individuals, made up for the shortage of official currency and became collectors' items because of their unique designs. Later, the Reichsmark and Deutsche Mark marked different eras in German history, reflecting the division and reunification of the country.
Current banknotes and the euro
Since 2002, Germany has used the euro as its official currency. The euro banknotes, designed to represent European unity, show architecture from different eras without identifying specific countries. However, Germany maintains its influence on European monetary policy through the Frankfurt-based European Central Bank. Euro banknotes in circulation range from €5 to €500, although the €500 bill was discontinued in 2019 due to concerns about its use in illicit activities.
