10 Heller Brixlegg

Brixlegg's Heller notgeld belongs to the vast wave of small-denomination emergency issues that flooded the Tyrol — and the rest of Austria — from 1920 onward, as coin shortages made change transactions nearly impossible in market towns. Gemeinde Brixlegg, a copper-mining settlement on the Inn River, issued its own scrip rather than wait for central supply to stabilize.

These municipal pieces were typically printed in small local runs and redeemed quickly once coinage returned, which makes intact surviving examples more common in collector sets than in circulation-worn singles.
