Solnhofen is a village in Bavaria better known to paleontologists than to numismatists — the local limestone quarries yielded the first *Archaeopteryx* specimen in 1861. By 1917, with metal coinage hoarded or melted for the war effort, even a community this small had to produce its own emergency pfennig notes. This is Notgeld at its most granular: a single municipality filling a coin shortage that Berlin had no immediate capacity to solve.
The J. P. Himmer print shop in Augsburg handled a great deal of Bavarian municipal Notgeld during this period. The official stamp served as the primary authentication device — without it, the note held no local authority.
