Meura is a village in the Thuringian Forest with a population that has rarely exceeded a few hundred — which makes this Notgeld note a curiosity of municipal overreach in the best possible sense. During the small-change crisis of 1921, even the most obscure German communes were legally permitted to issue emergency fractional currency, and thousands did exactly that. Meura's participation in that wave was handled by Merzdorf & Frosch in nearby Saalfeld, a regional printer that processed similar commissions for dozens of small Thuringian issuers that year.
The DeNG reference places this within a numbered series, suggesting at least one companion denomination was issued alongside it.
