| Additional information |
Issued by W. Schieschke, the operator of the Aschaffenburg train station concession, this is a piece of private railway canteen or platform-vendor scrip from the German notgeld period. Station concessionaires across Germany issued their own small-denomination tokens when Reichsmünze coinage effectively vanished from circulation during and after the First World War — zinc was the expedient material of the moment, having already displaced copper and nickel for official coinage by 1915. The Hasselmann reference places this firmly within the documented corpus of Bavarian private emergency issues.
