| Additional information |
Crailsheim's iron notgeld issues of 1920 belong to the second wave of German municipal emergency coinage, when post-war metal shortages and the collapse of small-denomination currency supply forced even mid-sized Württemberg towns to strike their own coins. Iron was the practical fallback — zinc and aluminum were contested, and the brass and nickel of the imperial period were long gone into the war effort.
