| Opmerkingen |
Pötting is a tiny Upper Austrian village — the kind of issuer that rarely appears in mainstream collections. This note is one of hundreds of Austrian Notgeld pieces produced during the severe coin shortage that followed the First World War, when municipalities, merchants, and even individual businesses printed their own emergency pfennig-denomination scrip to keep local commerce moving. The Reich's metal coinage had largely vanished from circulation by 1919–1920, hoarded or melted.
The municipality stamp as the sole security feature is typical of the smallest rural issuers, who had no access to specialist printers and authenticated notes with whatever official rubber stamp the village office possessed.
