| Additional information |
Deutsche Futterwerke — "German Fodder Works" — was an animal feed processing operation, and like many German industrial firms during the early Weimar period, it issued notgeld tokens to compensate for the chronic shortage of small-denomination coinage that plagued circulation after World War I. Jessenitz, a small Mecklenburg community, had no municipal mint capacity; these pieces were privately commissioned to keep the factory's internal economy functioning.
Nickel-plated zinc was the material of necessity, not preference.
