| Opmerkingen |
Austrian municipal Notgeld of this type was driven almost entirely by the wartime and immediate postwar collapse of small-denomination coinage — by 1920, hoarding and metal shortages had stripped everyday change from circulation so thoroughly that hundreds of Austrian communes printed their own emergency issues just to keep local commerce moving. Hofkirchen im Mühlkreis, a small market town in Upper Austria's Mühlviertel, was one of them.
Bürgermeister K. Bogg's signature carries the full legal weight of the issue — municipal Notgeld was only valid within the issuing community, and the mayor's authorization was what distinguished an accepted local instrument from a worthless scrap.
