| Comments |
Eggerding is a village in Upper Austria with a present-day population well under a thousand — in 1920 it was smaller still. Like hundreds of similarly obscure Austrian municipalities, it issued Notgeld that year out of practical necessity: the postwar coin shortage was acute enough that even transactions of a few Heller became difficult without locally printed substitutes. The Linz printing house that produced this note handled a considerable volume of such municipal work across Upper Austria during the period.
The Jaksc/Pick suffix "c" indicates a discrete variety within the 20 Heller denomination — likely a color, paper, or stamp variant distinguishing it from parallel issues under the same reference.
