2 Pfennig

Traunstein's municipal council — the Stadtrat — was among the hundreds of German local authorities that issued small-denomination Notgeld during the acute coin shortage of 1917–1918. The 2 Pfennig denomination is unusually low even by Kleingeldscheine standards; most municipalities stopped at 5 Pfennig, making this a genuinely marginal value that likely saw heavy use at market stalls and public transit before being retired when the federal small-coin supply stabilized.

Traunstein's issues are not widely documented in the major Notgeld catalogues, which complicates attribution of specific print runs and dates.
