| Comments |
Dornbach was absorbed into Greater Vienna in 1892, long before this note was printed — meaning the Gemeinde issuing it in 1920 was already a legal fiction of sorts, a vestigial administrative identity surviving within the 17th district. The Austrian Notgeld wave of 1919–1922 allowed such sub-municipal bodies to plug the acute small-change shortage left by the collapse of the Habsburg monetary system, and Dornbach was among the smaller communities to take that window.
F. Seitenberg operated out of Vienna's 3rd district and handled a number of these local emergency issues. Unspectacular work, but competent.
