Hyperinflation Era
The 20 Million Mark Stamp was issued during a time of extreme hyperinflation in Germany, which peaked in the early 1920s. As the economy collapsed post-World War I, the value of the German Mark plummeted, leading to the issuance of increasingly high-denomination notes.
2 Symbol of Economic Collapse
This stamp not only served postal needs but also became a symbol of the economic hardships faced by the German populace. It reflects a period when citizens needed vast sums of currency just to purchase basic goods.
3 Philatelic Interest
Due to its historical context and the dramatic nature of hyperinflation, stamps like the 20 Million Mark have become highly sought after among collectors. They are considered valuable pieces of history.
