Opmerkingen

Wejherowo's district administration issued these marki during the chaotic transitional months following the Treaty of Versailles, when the newly created Polish Corridor was being formally transferred from German to Polish jurisdiction. Local authorities throughout the region improvised emergency scrip to fill the vacuum left by withdrawing German currency — the Reichsmark was departing, the Polish marka had yet to penetrate consistently into newly acquired territories, and commerce couldn't wait.

The Starostwo Powiatu Wejherowskiego was a Polish civilian administration operating in a district that had been German Kreis Neustadt just months prior. That political tension — German population, Polish governance, contested identity — is the actual backstory of this note's existence.
