Kaufbeuren's 1917 zinc notgeld emerged from the same wartime metal emergency that stripped German municipalities of their copper and nickel coinage — both metals requisitioned for shell casings and military hardware. Cities and towns issued their own emergency pieces under Reich authorization, with zinc being the least strategically valuable option left available to civilian minting.
Funck#234.1 is the primary reference for Kaufbeuren's municipal issues, and catalogued variants exist within this type.
