Comments

Molln is a small market town in Upper Austria, and this 10 Heller emergency note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities after the First World War left the national currency in chaos. Local governments printed their own small-denomination scrip simply because coins had vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or lost to wartime disruption.

The Jaksch/Pick reference JPR0625-10 places this within the documented Austrian local issue corpus, though Molln's series is not among the more widely studied.
