| Additional information |
Zuckerfabrik Klein-Wanzleben was one of Germany's most significant beet sugar operations, and like many large industrial employers of the Wilhelmine and early Weimar periods, it issued its own factory token currency to pay workers in scrip redeemable only at company-controlled stores — a practice that kept wages circulating internally. The zinc composition dates this almost certainly to a wartime or immediate postwar period, when copper and other base metals were requisitioned for munitions, forcing notgeld issuers to use whatever remained available.
