Weibern is a small Upper Austrian village, and like hundreds of similarly sized communities, it issued its own Notgeld during the postwar currency chaos when small-denomination coinage had effectively vanished from circulation. The 10 Heller note from 1920 falls into the second wave of Austrian municipal emergency money — less desperate than the 1918–19 issues, but still filling a genuine gap in everyday commerce.
Jos. Feichtingers Erben was a well-established Linz printing house responsible for a considerable volume of Upper Austrian Notgeld, which gives this piece consistent production quality relative to some rougher small-town issues. Mathias Graf's signature as the authorizing official is the primary variable distinguishing the JPR1146a sub-series.
