| Opmerkingen |
Dinslaken's 1914 emergency issue belongs to the first wave of German municipal Notgeld, triggered almost immediately after the outbreak of war when coin shortages hit commerce hard within weeks of mobilization. Gemeinde Dinslaken — a small industrial town in the Rhine-Ruhr region — turned to Gebrüder Parcus in Munich, the same firm that handled emergency printing for dozens of municipalities that autumn, which means production quality is competent but the notes were never meant to outlast the assumed short war.
The official stamp and Dr. Saelmans' signature served as the sole authentication against counterfeiting — a thin line of security for a note backed by municipal credit rather than the Reichsbank.
