Agricultural Workers with Hyperinflation Overprint

Germany · 1923 · 2 Millionen Mark

The stamp features a design of two agricultural workers, a man and a woman, in a field, originally denominated 200 Tausend Mark. It bears a prominent black overprint changing its face value to 2 Millionen Mark.

Issued during the peak of Germany's hyperinflation crisis in 1923, this stamp exemplifies the rapid devaluation of the German Mark, necessitating frequent and drastic denomination overprints to keep pace with soaring prices.
