| Additional information |
Arnold Schindler G.m.b.H. was a distillery and vinegar manufacturer in Herbolzheim, Baden, and this zinc notgeld piece was issued during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Germany in the early 1920s. Hundreds of local businesses and municipalities resorted to private token issues when Reichsbank coinage vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply insufficient to meet demand. The Menzel catalog cross-references this piece under two separate editions, suggesting minor die or planchet variation between recorded examples.
