| Opmerkingen |
Guhrau — now Góra, in present-day Poland — was one of hundreds of small Prussian municipalities that scrambled to print emergency Kleingeld in the opening weeks of World War I, when coin hoarding caused small-denomination currency to vanish almost entirely from circulation. The Magistrat issued these notes on its own authority, a stopgap measure made legal by the German imperial government's emergency ordinance of 31 July 1914.
The square cardboard format reflects the printer's practical constraints, not a design choice. Notgeld of this type was typically printed on whatever stock was locally available, which is why paper quality and thickness vary even within a single series suffix.
