Commenti	Ernst Pfeiffer operated from Oybin, a small village in the Zittauer Gebirge of Saxony, and this cardboard Pfennig belongs to the vast ecosystem of German Kleingeldersatz — small-change substitutes — that proliferated during and after the First World War when metal coinage vanished from circulation almost overnight. Local merchants, municipalities, and private businesses were permitted to issue their own fractional notes to keep trade functional. Pfeiffer's issue is among the more obscure private merchant entries in the Tieste catalogue.
