Horn is a small market town in the Waldviertel, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities after the First World War left the central banking system unable to supply adequate small change. Stadtgemeinde Horn handled the problem locally — F. Buerger was a Horn printer, so design, production, and issue all happened within the same town.
The Jaksc/Pick reference JPR0397IIa designates this as part of a multi-denomination series. The "IIa" suffix typically signals a variant within the second issue, worth checking against the specific serial or paper stock.
