Aigen — more precisely Aigen im Mühlkreis, in the Böhmerwald borderland of Upper Austria — issued this note during the Kleingeldersatz crisis that plagued Austria in the immediate postwar years. The collapse of the Habsburg monetary system and chronic coin shortages forced hundreds of municipalities to print their own fractional emergency currency, a phenomenon known as Notgeld. These market-town issues were strictly local in validity and typically redeemable only within the issuing community.
The Jaksc reference system is the primary catalog for Austrian municipal Notgeld, covering issues that Pick's World Paper Money series handles only selectively at this level of granularity. The 20 Heller denomination sits at the lower end of practical utility — enough for a bread roll or a tram fare, which was precisely the gap these notes were meant to fill.
