| Opmerkingen |
Kreissparkasse Hofgeismar was a district savings institution in the Hessian town of Hofgeismar, and like hundreds of similar municipal and county-level bodies across Germany, it resorted to issuing its own Notgeld during the acute small-change shortage of the First World War and its immediate aftermath. The 1.5 Mark denomination is itself telling — fractional and awkward, it exists precisely because conventional coinage had vanished from circulation and issuers were scrambling to cover whatever gaps remained unfilled by official channels.
Gebrüder Gotthelft in Cassel was a prolific regional printer of Hessian Notgeld, responsible for numerous district and municipal issues across the area.
