Anmerkungen

Lübeck's Stadtkasse issued this Notgeld fractional during the acute small-change shortage that followed Germany's post-WWI inflation spiral — municipal treasuries across the country were deputized into producing their own currency simply because the Reichsbank could not keep pace with demand for low-denomination notes. Lübeck, with its long history as a free city and Hanseatic trading hub, had both the civic infrastructure and the local print capacity to do it properly.

Joh. Moll K.G. was a well-established Lübeck commercial printer, and designer Asmus Jessen was a local figure — the note reflects genuine civic investment rather than the rushed, generic output that characterized lesser municipal issues of the same period.
