| Opmerkingen |
Lübeck's municipal treasury issued these notes in 1918 as Kriegsgeld — emergency currency produced by dozens of German municipalities when the Reichsbank could no longer guarantee adequate small-denomination circulation under wartime strain. The Stadtkasse series was a local administrative solution, not a banking instrument, and carried no backing beyond the city's own creditworthiness.
H. G. Rahtgens was a Lübeck commercial printer, not a security printing house. That shows in the notes — modest production values, no intaglio work, straightforward typography. Functional, not fine.
