Weida is a small town in eastern Thuringia, and like hundreds of similarly sized German municipalities in 1921, it issued its own emergency paper money — Notgeld — to address the chronic small-denomination coin shortage that plagued post-WWI Germany. The inflationary spiral had not yet reached its catastrophic peak, but coinage hoarding was already severe enough that local authorities were legally permitted to fill the gap themselves.
Johannes Arndt in Jena was a regional workhorse for Thuringian Notgeld production, turning out municipal issues for numerous small towns in the area during this period.
