Coins: Two coins. One story.

Of reform, resilience, and runaway inflation.

“From a time when a loaf of bread cost millions — this 10k marks 1923 Westphalia Notgeld coin wasn’t about spending, but surviving. The galloping horse symbolized courage through economic chaos.”

“In 1923, Westphalia’s Notgeld told a story of survival through numbers that lost meaning. From 10,000 to 50 million marks in just weeks — coins like these became artful witnesses to financial madness.”

Coin 1: Provinz Westfalen – 10,000 Mark, 1923

Notgeld Issue | Heinrich vom Stein | The Reformer’s Calm Amid Chaos

Coin 2: Provinz Westfalen – 50 Millionen Mark, 1923

Emergency Money | The Galloping Horse of Resilience

Probable thought back in 1923: When your coin says ‘50 Million Mark’ and still can’t buy breakfast — you know history’s teaching you a lesson in humility.
