German currency used during the Third Reich Era. It was worth much more than the 1920 era Deutsche Reichswahrun. It took a bushel basket if Marks to buy a steak in the Depression days right after WWI. Here is an example:

Dear Micutzu,

They re notes issued for the German Occuped Territories during the II WW from the Reichskreditkassen named Reich's Credit Treasury Notes.
The issue 1939 was 6 Notes = 0,50 1 , 2 , 5 , 20 , 50 Reichsmark.

The 1 Reichsmark exsist in 2 types =

a) Embossed stamp. Series 1 - 480
b) Without embossed stamp. Series 481 - 702

The 20 Reichkmark show "The architect" by A. Durer and Brandeburg gate on back.

The 50 Reichsmark show portrait of woman and Marienburg Castle on back.

All this first serie was with 7 numbers in the "code number" and the total was RM 7.175.500.000.

Another issue start in 1942 for notes RM 1 - 2 - 5 and the "code" arrive to 8 numbers without relief svastika cause the autarchic problems in this period and the inflation, the total was RM. 13.422.000.000.

The same credit istitute emitted metal zinc money for 5 and 10 Reichspfennings.

These emissions was circulated in Poland until March 1940 (When was start the Generalgouvernement Zloty issue) and in Norvegien,Danmark,Belgie,Luxembourg,France,Normann Islands,Balcanic States,Urss and for no much days in North Italia after the 8 September.

These issues stay in circulation until 31 December 1944 and reused from the British occupation kommando in Holstein-Sleswig from 8 may 1945 to May 1946 for the notes 5 - 20 - 50 with handmade cancels.

Micutzule, ia vezi si tu o mare raritate! 1200 LEI paper-money - Romanian occupation of Transnistria, 1941-1944. Acestea sunt rare pt. ca Rusnacii le-au ars in nebunie cand ne-au adus libertatea! Suma maxima pt. aceasta bancnota e de 1300$USD.

Numai bine ,

This interesting note was issued from Inifex, (Institutol de Finantarie Externa)

""This issue bears unusual denominations because of the excange rate set by Germany,as follows.... ..... 1200 lei = 20 Reichsmark or 200 Rubles/Karbowanez""

Concern the range price international catalogue during 1995/96 say for extra fine quality $1350 and 675$ for fine quality and 225$ for good quality.
You ve the piece in your hand so you re the better judge concern the quality...in any case uncircolated is no mentioned from my bad general sources.

I add some general informations concern this very know land from Albert Pick sources...and cause my great historical knowledge i vent idea if they re correct or not.(I think in this forum is necessery this last poor very personal comment )

Yes this banknote is quite scarce, mainly because the invading Soviet forces destroyed them at nearly 90%... I have only the 1200 LEI, the others are very scarce too. I know a Romanian dealer who is proposing me the entire bancnote set for some 3000$.

Just a little correction: Krause publications made several errors: It is INFINEX which means: INSTITUTUL DE FINANTARE EXTERNA.

Best regards,

This is the reverse:
