| Opmerkingen |
Losenstein is a small market town on the Enns River in Upper Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld emergency currency wave that swept Austria during and after the First World War. Municipal governments across the country — even tiny ones — were authorized to issue small-denomination paper because coinage had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted down under wartime conditions. Steyr-based printer E. Priebel handled a number of these local commissions in the region.
Bürgermeister Josef Schörkhuber's signature gives the note its legal standing — such pieces were redeemable only locally and within a defined time window.
