Comments

Hallein's 1919 Heller notes belong to the vast wave of Austrian municipal emergency currency — Notgeld — that flooded the country following the collapse of the Habsburg empire and the acute coin shortage that followed. Stadtgemeinde Hallein, a small salt-mining town on the Salzach south of Salzburg, issued these alongside denominations of 20 and 50 Heller to keep local commerce moving when small change had effectively vanished from circulation.

The Jaksch/Pick reference IIIc suffix indicates a specific paper or printing variant within the series — collectors of Austrian Notgeld treat these distinctions seriously, as print runs were short and variant survival rates differ considerably.
