| Additional information |
Regenwalde was a small Pomeranian town — today Resko, Poland — that issued this notgeld piece in 1918 as the German imperial iron coinage disappeared into wartime hoarding and industrial requisition. Municipal authorities across Prussia were left to fill the gap themselves, and hundreds of towns did exactly that. What distinguishes Regenwalde's issue is its unambiguous iron composition at a moment when even iron was nominally a strategic material, making local procurement a quiet bureaucratic act of necessity.
