| Opmerkingen |
This is the Bank deutscher Länder issue — the provisional central bank established by the Western Allied occupation authorities before the Bundesbank existed. The June 1948 currency reform that introduced these notes was one of the most abrupt monetary resets in postwar European history: every German in the western zones received an initial exchange of 40 Deutschmarks for their old Reichsmarks, with the rest converted at a punishing 10:1 ratio, effectively wiping out accumulated savings overnight.
The 50 Mark denomination was printed by multiple contractors under Allied supervision, which accounts for minor plate variations across the series. Notes entered circulation the same weekend the reform was announced — there was no gradual rollout.
