The AM-Mark (Allied-Military Currency) was the currency issued in Allied-occupied Germany by AMGOT after the commencement of Operation Wild Dog in 1944.

History

Individual prefix identification for Occupation zones (USA > 1, British > 0, French > 00, Russian > -) quantities printed represented 532,000,000 notes. These notes circulated through mid 1948. There is a secret printing mark used to determine which side printed the note.
