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\u003eComplete Set of 2 1921 Brieg \/ Brzeg German Poland 25 \u0026amp; 50 Pfennig Notgeld - 1921 German-Occupied Poland Emergency Pfennig Notgeld Pair\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Treasure Hunter Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53302909436201,"sku":"GMY-1921-Set2-Brieg","price":10.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1540\/3049\/files\/CLOE629-42.png?v=1782926036","url":"https:\/\/treasurehunterco.com\/sv\/products\/complete-set-of-1921-bismarkhutte-german-poland-25-and-50-pfennig-notgeld-1921-german-occupied-poland-emergency-pfennig-notgeld-pair-copy","provider":"Treasure Hunter Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
