| Opmerkingen |
Lübeck's municipal treasury issued this Notgeld piece during the post-WWI inflationary spiral, when the Reichsbank's coin shortage forced hundreds of German municipalities to produce their own fractional emergency currency. The Stadtkasse — the city treasury itself, not a private bank — was the issuing authority, which was relatively unusual; most comparable Notgeld came through chambers of commerce or savings institutions.
Joh. Moll K.G. was a Lübeck-based printing house, and Asmus Jessen's involvement as designer reflects the period's broader tendency to commission local artists for municipal Notgeld, giving these small-denomination pieces a regional character that mass-produced currency never had.
