Answer 2

Value of German currency:

• At the beginning of World War I, the authorized currency of Germany was the "Papiermark." One mark equated 100 pfennige. After the war, the name of the currency altered to "Rentenmark" (1923), "Reichsmark" (1924), "Deutsche Mark" (1948), and the "Euro" in 2002.
