Vorchdorf is a market town in Upper Austria, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities during the First World War, it was forced to issue its own emergency small change — Notgeld — when coin disappeared from circulation almost entirely after 1914. The Salzkammergut-Druckerei in Gmunden supplied many of these local issues across the lake district, which accounts for the family resemblance between several Upper Austrian pieces of this type.
The 20 Heller denomination was the workhorse of Austrian municipal Notgeld, used for the smallest everyday transactions that metal coinage had previously handled.
