Eberbach's 1917 notgeld patterns occupy an odd corner of German emergency coinage history. Most municipalities issuing Kriegsgeld that year turned immediately to zinc, iron, or pressed fiber — silver was a war material, tightly controlled. A pattern struck in .999 fine suggests either a presentation piece for municipal records or a private proposal submitted to city council that never cleared approval for mass production.
Funck 106.2 distinguishes this from at least one other Eberbach pattern of the same denomination, implying multiple submissions or die variations were considered.
