IIRC The DM was doing about as good as the dollar, if not better, by the time they switched to the Euro.
In 1921, the currency wasn't Deutsche Mark though, it was Reichsmark. There were a few currency reforms between the end WW I and the switch to Euro.
Yeah, I don't think I could carry enough of these to get half a Teuro.
