| Additional information |
Wald im Rheinland was an independent industrial town in the Bergisches Land, absorbed into the city of Solingen in 1929. This iron piece is Notgeld, emergency coinage issued by municipal authorities during the acute small-change shortage that followed Germany's defeat in World War I — hoarding and metal requisitioning had stripped circulation of virtually all pre-war coinage by 1919. Hundreds of German towns issued their own stopgap pieces that year, most in zinc or iron given the continued scarcity of copper.
The Funck 567.2 designation distinguishes this from at least one other die variety of the same municipal issue.
