The currency of West Germany from June 1948 onwards was the Deutsche Mark, divided into 100 Pfennige. East Germany used the Mark der Deutschen Notenbank instead. In 1990 the West German currency was adopted in East Germany some months before reunification. Note that since 2002 the only legal tender currency in Germany is the Euro.
There was, once again, severe inflation in Germany. The Reichsmark was often not accepted and for many purposes cigarettes were used ... In June 1948 the Reichsmark (RM) was replaced by a new currency, the Deutsche Mark (DM), in the three Western Zones of occupation. RM were converted into DM at the rate of 10:1 on balances up to RM5,000 and 13.5:1 above that.
For a long time the currency (the Reichsmark - RM) was artifically propped up, but from 1944 onwards Germany experienced severe inflation (for the second time in a generation). In West Germany the currency was 'reformed' in June 1948 with American support. The new postwar currency was the Deutsche Mark (DM) and it was introduced at the rate of RM10 to DM1. In other words you had to pay ten RM to get one DM. However, on balances of more than RM5000 the rate was RM13.50 to DM1.
It was Mark.
Germany's current monetary unit is the Euro ... there are also 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent coins.
