Germany-Notgeld Coin List
Germany's recent monetary history is marked by significant events that have left an indelible mark on its numismatics. From the issuance of emergency coins known as Notgeld to the adoption of the euro, the German monetary system has undergone dramatic changes that reflect the country's turbulent history in the 20th century.
The Notgeld phenomenon
During and after World War I, Germany faced a severe shortage of circulating currency. In response, the Notgeld, or "emergency money," was issued by cities, businesses and even individuals. These pieces, often made from unconventional materials such as leather, silk or porcelain, became highly valued collectibles by numismatists due to their unique designs and historical significance.
From hyperinflation to the Deutsche Mark
The hyperinflation of 1923 marked another crucial chapter in German monetary history, with banknotes reaching astronomical denominations. After stabilization, the Reichsmark and later the Deutsche Mark were established as national currencies. The Deutsche Mark, introduced in 1948, became a symbol of the German economic miracle and remained in circulation until the adoption of the euro in 2002, leaving a rich numismatic legacy of coins and banknotes that reflect the recovery and prosperity of post-war Germany.
