| Comments |
Mondsee is a small lakeside town in Upper Austria, and this note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities between 1919 and 1921 — a period when small coin effectively vanished from circulation and local authorities were left to improvise. Market communes like Mondsee had no formal printing infrastructure, so production was typically contracted to regional presses or executed with whatever means were available locally.
The Reisenbichler design credit is worth noting: local artists frequently supplied Notgeld artwork on commission, and the signature of Ant. Kaltenbrunner as municipal signatory places administrative responsibility squarely with the Marktgemeinde's own offices rather than any banking institution.
