| Additional information |
Koschmin — known today as Koźmin Wielkopolski — issued this zinc notgeld piece in the final weeks of Imperial Germany's collapse. The town sat in the Province of Posen, a territory that would be transferred to the newly reconstituted Polish state following the Versailles Treaty and the Greater Poland Uprising of 1918–19. Municipal authorities across the region struck emergency coinage that year as the Reichsbank's distribution networks failed; within months, many of these issuing towns were no longer German jurisdiction at all.
