| Opmerkingen |
Austrian municipal notgeld of this type — small-denomination emergency scrip issued by individual communes between 1919 and 1921 — emerged because the postwar collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left rural communities chronically short of small change. The central government in Vienna was too occupied with inflation and reparations negotiations to adequately supply fractional currency, so thousands of municipalities printed their own. Altenburg bei Perg, a small village in Upper Austria near the Danube, was entirely typical in that sense.
The single authorizing signature, Königshofer, most likely belongs to the Bürgermeister or a designated municipal official — no additional countersignature, which was common for issues from very small communes where administrative staff was minimal.
