| Comments |
Mitterndorf's Heller notes belong to the vast wave of Austrian Notgeld issued when small-denomination coinage vanished from circulation after the First World War. Spa towns frequently produced more decorative issues than industrial communes — the local tourism economy gave them both the incentive and the small print runs that now make these notes disproportionately collectible relative to their face value.
The JPR0621IId series indicates a 1920 dating, placing this issue in the second major wave of Austrian community emergency currency, after the initial 1919 flood of municipal issues had already exhausted many smaller printers.
