| Additional information |
Füllnerwerk was a major glassworks and machinery manufacturer in Warmbrunn — now Cieplice Śląskie-Zdrój in southwestern Poland — that issued this iron notgeld token during the severe small-change shortage that gripped Germany and Austria-Hungary in the First World War. Municipal and private emergency issues of this kind proliferated from roughly 1916 onward as hoarding stripped copper and nickel from circulation entirely. Iron was the stopgap material of necessity, not preference, and most factory-issued pieces saw hard use within closed industrial communities where the issuing firm effectively served as the local economy.
