Additional information

Schleiz issued this porcelain notgeld in 1922 as the German inflation crisis made metal increasingly impractical for small-denomination coinage. The Meissen State Porcelain Manufactory and the Staatliche Porzellan-Manufaktur produced most German ceramic emergency issues of this period, though smaller regional commissions like Schleiz often went through intermediary suppliers whose records are incomplete. Porcelain notgeld circulated only briefly before hyperinflation made even 1 Mark denominations economically irrelevant — rendering most surviving pieces effectively uncirculated by default.
