| Additional information |
Canteen tokens from German paper mills are among the more obscure corners of Notgeld-adjacent industrial coinage. This piece was issued by the factory canteen rather than any municipal authority, intended purely for internal use — redeemable for food or drink on-site and worthless the moment a worker left the premises. The Schwarzwald paper industry ran several such closed-loop token systems, which kept wages partially locked inside company-controlled spending. Iron was the practical choice by this period; brass and nickel had better uses.
