Comments

Hinterbrühl is a small spa village south of Vienna, best known as the site of the Seegrotte — Europe's largest underground lake, later used as a Heinkel aircraft factory under Nazi occupation. In 1920, it was issuing its own emergency currency. The Austrian Notgeld wave of 1919–1921 produced thousands of municipal issues as the post-imperial monetary system buckled under hyperinflationary pressure and a chronic shortage of small coins.

Wehhofer in nearby Mödling handled a number of these local commissions. The .2 suffix in the Jaksc reference indicates a variant within the series — likely a minor typographic or paper distinction from the first printing.
