Opmerkingen

Saarlouis issued this Notgeld note in 1919, during the acute coin shortage that followed Germany's defeat and the subsequent occupation of the Rhineland. The city itself was in an anomalous political position: under the postwar Saar settlement being negotiated at Versailles, the region would soon pass to a League of Nations administration, making municipal emergency currency of this period a product of a jurisdiction that was effectively disappearing in real time.

Small-denomination Notgeld from this transitional moment is frequently found in collector-grade condition — much of it was never spent, hoarded by the philatelic trade almost immediately upon issue.
