| Comments |
St. Johann in Tirol issued this 10 Heller Notgeld in 1921, well into the tail end of Austria's postwar emergency currency period — by which point most municipalities had already withdrawn their local issues following the stabilization efforts of 1920. A late-cycle issue from a small Tyrolean market town, printed locally by Wagner in Innsbruck rather than one of the larger Vienna houses that handled the bulk of Austrian Notgeld production.
Wagner handled a number of Tyrolean municipal commissions during this period, keeping distribution regional and costs low.
