| Opmerkingen |
Lochen is a small parish commune in Upper Austria, and its decision to issue emergency money in 1920 was entirely practical — the postwar coin shortage throughout the former Habsburg lands left countless small municipalities printing their own fractional notes to make change. These Notgeld issues were so widespread in Austria and Germany that collectors began hoarding them almost immediately, meaning many examples were never spent at all.
J. Mohr in nearby Braunau am Inn handled the printing, a logical choice for a village with no access to large urban printers. Designer credit to Sepp Auer is unusually specific for a municipal Heller note of this type.
