Comments

Pasing was an independent Bavarian municipality until Munich absorbed it in 1938. This note is one of thousands of Notgeld issues that flooded Germany from mid-1918 onward, driven by a severe shortage of small change as the imperial economy buckled under wartime strain. The Royal Bavarian designation — "K.B." standing for Königlich Bayerisch — would become obsolete within months, when the November Revolution swept away the Wittelsbach monarchy and the kingdom ceased to exist.

Local printing for municipal Notgeld of this period was the rule, not the exception, and Pasing was no different.
