| Additional information |
Glatz issued this zinc notgeld in 1919 as the new Weimar government struggled to stabilize a coinage supply wrecked by wartime metal requisitions. The city — known today as Kłodzko in southwestern Poland — was a fortified Silesian administrative center that would change hands dramatically after World War II, its entire German population expelled under the Potsdam Agreement of 1945.
The zinc composition reflects the material constraints that plagued German municipal issuers throughout this period; copper and nickel remained controlled commodities well into 1919.
