Helmarshausen is a small town on the Weser river in Hesse, historically significant as a medieval center of manuscript illumination and bronze casting — the 12th-century Helmarshausen school produced the Gospels of Henry the Lion. By 1921, it was issuing its own emergency paper like hundreds of other German municipalities scrambling to cover a severe small-change shortage as postwar inflation began accelerating beyond the Reichsbank's ability to supply adequate coinage.
The DeNG reference indicates two known varieties (596.2 and 596.3), suggesting the Magistrat issued at least one revised printing within the same denomination series — minor differences in typography or serial format, most likely.
