| Comments |
Hinterbrühl is a small village south of Vienna, better known for its underground lake — once a Heinkel aircraft factory flooded by the retreating Wehrmacht in 1945 — than for its monetary history. This note belongs to the vast Austrian Notgeld wave of 1919–1921, when the collapse of the Habsburg economy left municipalities scrambling to cover a catastrophic shortage of small-change coinage. Wohlhofer in nearby Mödling handled production for several Lower Austrian communities during this period, which likely kept costs down for a commune of Hinterbrühl's modest size.
The Jaksch/Pick reference suffix "Ib" indicates a recognized variety within the 10 Heller denomination — likely a paper stock or overprint distinction rather than a reissue date.
