Berlin's municipal authority issued its own small-denomination emergency currency — Notgeld — during the post-WWI period when a chronic shortage of coin and low-denomination Reichsbank notes made everyday transactions genuinely difficult. The city's status as the imperial capital gave its scrip more credibility than most municipal issues, and Berlin Notgeld circulated without much friction in the local economy.
The watermark is worth noting: most Notgeld of this period was printed on plain stock, and its presence here suggests the city was drawing on better-quality paper reserves, possibly repurposed from pre-war administrative use.
