| Aanvullende informatie |
This is a piece of Notgeld — emergency token currency issued by private businesses and municipalities across Germany during and after World War I, when small-denomination coinage all but vanished from circulation. Johann Kraus's cooperative general store in Eggolsheim, a small Franconian village in Bavaria, issued these zinc tokens to facilitate everyday transactions when the imperial coinage system failed to keep small change in local hands. Zinc was the material of necessity; copper and nickel had long since been redirected to the war effort.
