Pinsdorf is a small village on the southern shore of the Traunsee, and this note is a product of the postwar Austrian Notgeld wave — the period between roughly 1919 and 1922 when hundreds of municipalities printed their own small-denomination emergency currency to address the acute coin shortage left by the collapse of the Habsburg economy. The Salzkammergut-Druckerei in nearby Gmunden handled production for several of these local issues, which kept costs manageable for communities with no real municipal printing infrastructure.
Ludwig Hobl's signature as issuing authority appears on the face. The Jaksc/Pick reference JPR0750-10 places this firmly within the documented Austrian Notgeld corpus, though Pinsdorf issues see far less collector traffic than the more elaborately produced tourist-oriented Notgeld from the same region.
