Germany, ca.1921. 10 Mark, Promissory Note, Black and red print with swastika designs in border and at bottom left, S/N 004060, Fine to VF condition. This Unverzinslicher Schuldschein (non-interest-bearing obligation) was issued by the National Socialist German Workers' Association (NSDAP), Munich headquarters, pursuant to a party resolution dated January 19, 1921, during the movement's formative years. The document was created specifically to finance the acquisition, preservation, and expansion of the party newspaper, Völkischer Beobachter, which became one of the regime's most important propaganda organs. Unlike a conventional bond, the Schuldschein paid no interest and functioned as an ideological contribution rather than an investment. Redemption was promised in cash between 1925 and 1940, but only to holders deemed of "Aryan descent," embedding racial doctrine directly into a financial instrument. Richly ornamented with Nazi symbolism and heroic worker imagery, the document illustrates how early National Socialist organizations merged finance, propaganda, and ideology into a single, carefully controlled fundraising mechanism.
