sorry meant to say average guy.just think if they dont cut back on production we will all need debit cards or wheel barrows like germany did in ww 2.just a thought.
there were kind of two discussions in this thread. One regarding the possibility of this being a fake, the other regarding the possibility of it being real and the government shifting production to future coins. tgaw was talking about the latter
please be patient with me i am doing several things at once and not always good at it.i do like the information you guys throw out.
Glad to know there are certain areas I can turn to in CT for a good laugh! @Jeffb, that "shopped" photo meme was a riot!
"...or wheel barrows like germany did in ww 2." post-World War I, you mean. No inflation to speak of during the Third Reich, as proven by the denominations of both coins and stamps.
they were buying postage stamps and using paper money for fire starters at the end of ww2.i think that 1923 would be the greatest point after ww 1.
You are confusing two different things. The Nazi coins and paper money were worthless after V-E Day, and quickly replaced by Allied Military Currency (all paper money). The first coins then appeared in 1948, inscribed "Bank Deutscher Lander," followed by Federal coinage in 1950. The Nazi coins (and stamps) were not deemed worthless due to inflation; it was due to regime change and occupation by the U.S., England, and France, who certainly would not tolerate Nazi coins continuing to circulate.
sounds good to me i guess i should have googled it first.i have a number of old german notes dating from like the teens to about 1950.i think they are in one of my safes downstairs,but its been so long since i looked at them i am not sure.i do remember one was 1,000,000.
