Nazi Era 2000 Reichsmark Bond certificate from 1941,
Cologne Germany
The treasure of the German Reichsbank - ‘The Reichsbankschatz’
With the increasing bombing of Germany by the Allied Powers in the early 40s, the national government decreed the movement of stocks and bonds from all commercial banks to the bomb-proof vault of the Reichsbank in Berlin. There, all of the nearly 30 million documents have survived the war. Since the Reichsbank was in East Berlin, she fell and thu...s the entire securities portfolio in the hands of the Soviet occupying power. The Soviets had no more use for these securities due to the nationalizations carried out anyway. So the Reichsbank vault was simply sealed and closed. In 1990, after the reunification of Germany, this treasure has been archived over 10 years and was sold on auctions to the public at the end. So the unique documents of German financial history are not associated with any substantive claim anymore but they are a delight for collectors, archivists, historians, the financial world and many more.
