| Comments |
Reichraming is a small industrial village in Upper Austria, its economy historically tied to the ironworks at the nearby Reichraminger Bach. This 20 Heller note is one of the Austrian Notgeld emissions of 1920 — locally issued emergency scrip produced by municipalities, cooperatives, and businesses to address the chronic small-change shortage that persisted well after the First World War ended. The national coinage supply had effectively collapsed, and thousands of communities across Austria and Germany filled the gap themselves.
The "b" suffix in the Jaksch reference indicates a variant within the Reichraming 20 Heller type — likely a color, paper, or overprint distinction from the primary "a" issue.
