Hirschberg's Kleingeldscheine were a direct response to the coin shortage that gripped Germany in the immediate postwar years — hoarding and metal scarcity had stripped small denominations from everyday commerce, forcing municipalities across the Reich to print their own stopgap fractional notes. Hirschberg (now Jelenia Góra, Poland) was one of hundreds of German towns that issued these locally-authorized Notgeld pieces between 1919 and 1920, when the central government had neither the capacity nor the coin stock to fill the gap.
The series was invalidated once federal small coinage resumed circulation. Most examples survived precisely because recipients kept them as curiosities rather than spending them.
