The design is enclosed by a simple ruled border, and above the rosette a four-line German verse in Gothic script reads 'Notgeld spricht. / Du bist so groß und stark, / Ich bin so zart und klein,' with the concluding two lines 'Und dennoch helf' ich Dir / Als braver Notgeldschein.' printed below. |

Rastenfeld is a small market town in Lower Austria's Zwettl district, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the acute small-change famine that gripped Austria in the immediate postwar years. The collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left local communities unable to obtain sufficient coin for everyday transactions, prompting hundreds of municipalities — Rastenfeld among them — to print their own emergency paper in fractional Heller denominations. These Notgeld issues were technically illegal under Austrian monetary law but were tolerated out of practical necessity.
The Jaksc catalog documents an extraordinary number of these hyper-local Austrian issues. Rastenfeld's entry is one of the more obscure, issued by a town whose entire population at the time numbered in the hundreds.
