The South West African mark was a temporary currency issued between 1916, after the withdrawal of the German South West African mark, and prior to the introduction of the South African pound in 1918.

A number of notes were denominated in South West African marks and pfennigs, especially by the Swakopmund Bookshop that issued 10, 25, 50 Pfennig, and 1, 2, and 3 Mark notes.[1]
