Vienna's municipal government began issuing Notgeld in 1919 as postwar Austria buckled under a catastrophic shortage of small-denomination coinage. The Stadtgemeinde Wien notes were among the more professionally produced examples of the genre — H. Engel & Sohn was a local Viennese commercial printer, not a security press, which shows in the relatively simple execution compared to contemporary Austrian state issues.
Notgeld of this period was legally temporary, intended for redemption once the coinage situation stabilized. Much of it never was redeemed, which is why surviving examples outnumber what actual circulation figures would suggest.
