About this banknote

The Deutsche Rentenbank issued the 5 Rentenmark banknote on January 2, 1926, as part of efforts to stabilize Germany's currency following the hyperinflation of the early 1920s. This note was introduced to restore public confidence in the monetary system during the Weimar Republic era.

The obverse features a portrait of a young girl holding wheat, symbolizing agriculture. The reverse displays a depiction of wheat. The banknote measures 134 x 74 mm and is printed on paper. It was demonetized on August 30, 1924, when the Rentenmark was replaced by the Reichsmark.
