FREE: RARE COLLECTIBLE VINTAGE BERLIN GERMANY REICH'S BANK NOTE 100 DATED FEBRUARY 1908 PAPER MONEY

Economic reforms, such as the issue of a new provisional currency – the Rentenmark – and the 1924 Dawes Plan, stabilised German monetary development and thus the economic outlook of the Weimar Republic. One of the key reforms caused by the Dawes Plan was the establishment of the Reichsbank as an institution independent of the Reich government. On 30 August 1924, the Reichsbank began issuing the Reichsmark, which served as the German currency until 1948.

The seizure and consolidation of power by the Nazis during the years of the Third Reich also greatly affected the Reichsbank. A 1937 law reestablished the Reich government's control of the Reichsbank, and in 1939, the Reichsbank was renamed as the Deutsche Reichsbank and placed under the direct control of Adolf Hitler, with Walther Funk as the last president of the Reichsbank, from 1939 to 1945.[2] The defeat of Nazi Germany in May 1945 also resulted in the dissolution of the Reichsbank, along with other Reich ministries and institutions. The explanation of the disappearance of the Reichsbank reserves in 1945 was uncovered by Bill Stanley Moss and Andrew Kennedy, in post War Germany

we both are right on our information, as we got our information from the same place

sorry i typed schindler just above wrong

the picture on the left is of my great great grandfather otto schindler,,in the second picture is a picture is a picture of my grandfather otto and otto and oscar schindler, yes an actor in the movie called schindlers list, an actor played the part of my great uncle oscar schindler, the pictures do have two dates, these pictures belonged to my mothers sister, my aunt died at the age of 95, on the back of the picture, the dates read, 1859 to 1915, i guess my aunt didn't know the date, unless one was taken in 1859 and the other taken in 1915, so i can't ask her about the dates

i will change my profile picture starting in a few minutes, i will leave that picture on this site till the end of the listing, it will be a picture of my sshindler great great gradfather and my grandfather and my grandfathers brother was oscar schindler,, the picture was taken sometime in the late 1800's in berlin germany,, maybe the picture has a date, i thank you for your information

it probably was probably in circulation during world war 2 when my dad served, or maybe someone gave it to him, too late to ask now he's dead, i am also part german on my mothers side, my mother's maiden name was schindler and that's german as can be, right it is like owning a wheat penny, but my mom has no ideal if my dad got it from someone or how he had it, you bring up very good points on germany and this bill, i also got my information off of the same site as you did,

I am half German but in this case it's just common sense. Nazi Germany was called the third reich for a reason - there were two others before it. It's most commonly associated with Hitler but his place in Germany's history of using the word reich is a relatively short one. It was in use for 62 years before he even came along.

In the case of the Reich Bank it also translated Empire Bank or the bank of the government.

As far as why your dad had it - It's kinda like owning a wheat penny from 1909 even if you weren't born until the 1970's. It was probably still in circulation when your father was there.

vpp1234 - The auction does not state THIRD Reich; it simply states Reich.

from Wikipedia:
"The term Reich was part of the German names for Germany for much of its history. Reich was used by itself in the common German variant of the Holy Roman Empire, (Heiliges Römisches Reich (HRR))...
The unified Germany which arose under Chancellor Otto von Bismarck in 1871 was the first entity that was officially called in German Deutsches Reich, also the Second Reich (Zweites Reich) succeeding the HRR. Deutsches Reich remained the official name of Germany until 1945, although these years saw three very different political systems more commonly referred to in English as: "the German Empire" (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933; this term is a post-World War II coinage not used at the time), and Nazi Germany (the Third Reich) (1933–1945)."

world war 1 lasted from 1914 - 1919

this bill was out before nazis germany, when this bill came out was before world war1 during the imperalist germany time

Fan Me, I Fan Back

here's a little more information on this bill

hope this information on this bill helps

The history of the Reichsbank was volatile. Until World War I it produced a very stable currency called the Goldmark. The expenses of the war caused inflationary pressure and the mark started to decrease in value. The defeat of imperial Germany in 1918, the economic burden caused by the payment of war reparations to the Allies, and the social unrest in the early years culminated in the German hyperinflation of 1922–23. The mark, formerly backed by gold, evolved into the Papiermark (paper mark), backed by nothing.

The Reichsbank was the central bank of Germany from 1876 until 1945. It was founded on 1 January 1876 (shortly after the establishment of the German Empire in 1871). The Reichsbank was a privately owned central bank of Prussia, under close control by the Reich government.[1] Its first president was Hermann von Dechend. Before unification in 1871, Germany had 31 central banks – the Notenbanken (note banks). Each of the independent states issued their own money. In 1870, a law was passed that forbade the formation of further central banks. In 1874, a draft banking law was introduced in the Reichstag (the German parliament). After several changes and compromises, the law was passed in 1875. Despite the creation of the Reichsbank, however, four of the Notenbanken – Baden, Bavaria, Saxony and Württemberg – continued to exist until 1914.
