| Opmerkingen |
Lindenberg im Allgäu is a small town in the Bavarian Swabia region, and its 1918 Kleingeldscheine — emergency small-change notes — were issued by the municipal magistrate in direct response to the acute coin shortage that gripped Germany during the First World War. The Reichsbank had suspended silver coinage well before 1918, and brass and iron coins were being hoarded; municipalities across the country filled the gap with locally issued Notgeld rather than wait for central authority to act.
Heinz Smiesl's designer credit is unusual for a 10 Pfennig piece from a town this size — most small Bavarian municipalities used stock printer designs. Worth noting for completeness.
