Very accurate reproduction of Polish Zloty banknotes issued by German authorities (Bank Emisyjny w Polsce) for the occupied Polish territory (General Government / Generalgouvernement). You will see the banknotes lack any national symbols, or notable Polish individuals. 

 

For added realism the banknotes can be printed on 100% cotton paper. 

  

Choose individual denominations, or whole set! The following denominations were issued:

  • 500 zl - banknote used for bribes of German officials, nicknamed "Góral" = "highlander"
  • 100 zl 
  • 50 zl - smuggled portrait of a Polish national heroine Emilia Plater who (being a woman!) raised to the rank of captain in the uprising for Polish independence in the XIX century. Polish authorities claimed it's just a portrait of a "young man" and Germans didn't know any better
  • 20 zl - not only Emilia Plater again on the obverse, but additionally a monument of Tadeusz Kosciuszko on the reverse. The same monument Germans demolished after successful invasion of Poland!

 

These are civilian money used in the territory of General Government. If you're looking for military banknotes, check out Money Page of Krause Papierwerke!
