I am looking for the value (compared to other currencies) of the German Mark during the years 1933-1941. Thanks in advance for any replies.

One US$ was:

year | purchase power (in 2002 US$) | Pound Sterling | Reichsmark

1933 $13.88 £ 0.24 RM 3.28
1934 $13.45 £ 0.20 RM 2.54
1935 $13.12 £ 0.20 RM 2.48
1936 $12.96 £ 0.20 RM 2.48
1937 $12.51 £ 0.20 RM 2.49
1938 $12.73 £ 0.20 RM 2.49
1939 $12.96 £ 0.23 RM 2.50
1940 $12.81 £ 0.26 RM 2.50
1941 $12.23 £ 0.25 RM 2.50
1942 $11.03 £ 0.25
1943 $10.39 £ 0.25
1944 $10.25 £ 0.25
1945 $10.01 £ 0.25


So 1 RM (1935) is 1/2.48*13.12 = 5.29 US$ (2002) worth.
