Esens is a small market town in East Frisia, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1920, it issued its own Kleingeldersatz — substitute small change — to compensate for the acute coin shortage that persisted well after the armistice. The Reichsbank's inability to mint sufficient low-denomination coinage during the inflationary transition period pushed the burden onto local authorities, many of whom contracted whatever printer was nearest.
Oskar Passig was a local Esens printer, not a specialist banknote firm. That the issuer and printer shared the same town is about as local as emergency currency gets.
