Neuhofen an der Ybbs is a small market town in Lower Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities between 1919 and 1921. The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monetary system after 1918 left local communities chronically short of small change — the central authorities could not produce coin fast enough to meet everyday demand, so thousands of towns and villages printed their own emergency paper in tiny denominations.
These Austrian Notgeld issues were produced in enormous variety and are collected almost entirely as a series rather than individually. The Neuhofen examples attract little premium over common small-town issues.
