| Opmerkingen |
The Deutsche Notenbank was the central bank of the German Democratic Republic, and this 1955 50-Mark note was issued into an economy operating under rigid Soviet-aligned monetary controls — not to be confused with the West German Deutsche Bundesbank series of the same period. The two German states ran parallel currency systems with near-identical names and denominations, a situation that created persistent confusion and enabled ongoing black-market arbitrage across the inner-German border.
Printed by the Staatsdruckerei Berlin, the GDR's state printing works, the series relied on a watermark as its primary security feature — modest by Western standards of the time. The 1957 currency reform would eventually pull this denomination from circulation.
