| Opmerkingen |
The Oesterreichisch-ungarische Bank's wartime small denominations were a direct response to the near-total disappearance of coin from circulation after 1914 — hoarding and metal requisitions for munitions production had stripped the Austro-Hungarian economy of its small change. Notes like this one effectively replaced coins that would never return.
By 1917 the monarchy was financially exhausted, and inflation was already eroding the purchasing power of even these modest denominations. Within four years of this note's issue, the krone itself would cease to exist as a currency across most of its former territory.
