Description: This note was printed on, and hand cut from, a larger piece of velvet. The outer edges may not be perfectly straight but the margins are very wide all the way around. THE ONLY GERMAN CURRENCY TO WITHSTAND HYPERINFLATION! The German Goldmark is considered the rarest and most valuable form of post-WW1 German currency, as its value was pegged to the U.S. Dollar. A paper 42 Goldpfennig note (1/10 of the value of the then U.S. Dollar) can sell for $25 or more in uncirculated condition, while a paper 1.05 Goldmark note (1/4 of $1) commands $50 or more in like condition and a paper 4.20 Goldmark note (1 full Dollar) can fetch over $100. You can pretty much triple those prices if the Goldmark(s) are printed on silk or linen! And when it comes to velvet notes, the sky's the limit in terms of the scarity premium. By this yardstick, an uncirculated 25 Goldmark note printed on purple velvet should be worth $750 or more. However, look at our Buy Now Price and realize that the jumbo-sized red banknote being offered here is not paper but rather luxuriously smooth VELVET (the rarest of all materials used for Goldmarks). Issued by Conto 12 (Account #12) of the Bielefeld Savings Bank, this mesmerizing purple currency creation in the amount of 100 Goldmark was equal in value to .32 ounces of gold (worth about $500 today)!! But the note's appeal is not limited to its high monetary value, history, condition and luxurious fabric. Its bold graphics and poignant text add yet another dimension of uniqueness.... A caped muscular warrior with a giant sword and shield is poised to rescue a naked German damsel (representing the nation-state itself ) from a ferocious dragon entangling her. The accompanying text speaks of the awakening of a righteous storm of Godly vengeance that will destroy the dragon and the enemies of the people, and liberate them from the yoke of foreign oppression i.e. reparation payments, French Occupation, appropriation of German coal, downsizing of territory, Wilson's "14 Points" and every other deprivation and insult that came with the country's defeat. Only one...only now...only here. Don't dare lose this purple velvet wonder note! The only one on eBay!! Collector Value: $500. Buy Now for $199.95 and SAVE 60%!!!!
