Hermann Hanke's weaving mill in Reinerz — now Duszniki-Zdrój in southwestern Poland — issued this 10 Pfennig note during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Germany in the immediate postwar years. Thousands of private firms, municipalities, and cooperatives printed their own Kleingeldersatz between roughly 1919 and 1921, and textile manufacturers were among the more unusual issuers in that wave.
The guilloche underprint is a mild security gesture — sufficient to deter casual counterfeiting of a note worth very little, but produced cheaply enough to match the economics of emergency scrip.
