| Beschrijving voorzijde | An outer beaded border follows the octagonal periphery of the token, enclosing a circular inner beaded ring within which the large numeral '10' is prominently displayed in the central field. The issuer's legend 'LEIPZIGER TRICOTAGENFABRIK A.G.' runs around the annulus between the two beaded rings, with a small star ornament at the base. The design is plain and utilitarian, characteristic of German Notgeld emergency coinage of the World War I era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Leipzig's textile industry relied heavily on scrip coinage during the Wilhelmine and Weimar periods, when labor-intensive factories paid workers partly in tokens redeemable only at company stores — a system that tied wages to the employer's own retail margins. The Leipziger Tricotagenfabrik, a knitted goods manufacturer, issued zinc tokens of this type when metal shortages and wartime economic disruption made small-denomination Reichsmark coinage chronically unavailable for making change.
Zinc was the material of necessity, not preference — chosen because copper and nickel were diverted to military use during both world wars.
