Meggenhofen is a small agricultural commune in Upper Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the acute small-change shortage that gripped Austria in the immediate postwar years. The collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left local communities effectively on their own — hundreds of Austrian municipalities issued their own Notgeld between 1919 and 1921, and Gemeinde Meggenhofen was no exception. These hyper-local emissions were authorized under emergency provisions and were theoretically redeemable at the issuing municipality, though enforcement was uneven at best.
The Jaksch/Pick reference places this within the documented Upper Austrian municipal series, a group that remains incompletely catalogued in most general references.
