Comments

Attersee is a small lakeside village in Upper Austria, and its 1920 Heller notes belong to the enormous wave of Notgeld — emergency municipal scrip — that swept Austrian and German communities after World War I left the central monetary system unable to supply adequate small change. Thousands of municipalities issued their own paper during this period, and most of it was printed by regional jobbing presses rather than banknote specialists. Franz in Linz was exactly that kind of printer.

The JPR0060a series covers multiple denominations from Attersee. Collector demand for Austrian Notgeld has historically been driven more by regional completeness than by individual rarity.
