Most notgeld contained an expiry date, after which the note was deemed invalid. The issued notes of individual municipalities and institutions pulled power from the national Reichsbank and helped to counter currency shortages from the war. Printed using recycled materials, these notes became a popular collector's item because of their attractive colors and designs, leading to the overprinting of notes and eventually hyperinflation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks for stopping by!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1921 Lenzen Elbe Germany 50 and 75 Pfennig Notgeld Set - Complete 50 Pfennig Set - German Emergency Currency - 1921 German Pfennig Note Set\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Treasure Hunter Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51195520909609,"sku":"GMY-1921-Set4-Lenzen","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1540\/3049\/files\/DSC_4974_40a536c9-ef8b-4276-9e47-f8bc7812d72f.jpg?v=1757697804","url":"https:\/\/treasurehunterco.com\/pl\/products\/1921-hameln-germany-25-50-75-pfennig-notgeld-set-near-complete-set-german-emergency-currency-1921-german-pfennig-note-trio-copy","provider":"Treasure Hunter Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
