BELGIUM - WWII Local Overprints on German Reichs bank notes
Posted by Colin
One of the more unusual bank notes I acquired years ago has a light purple circular overprint of the "Administration Communale Burgermeisteramt of BOURG-REULAND" around the royal arms of Belgium in the watermark area at left of a German 50 Reichsmark dated 1933, catalog # 182a which was applied during World War II. For more information on these local Belgian hand stamped overprints refer to Schwan-Boling's "World War II Remembered," pages 35-38.
