Spitz an der Donau was one of dozens of Austrian municipalities forced to print its own emergency currency after the First World War left the country's coinage supply in collapse. This 20 Heller note is part of the broader Notgeld phenomenon that swept German-speaking Austria between 1919 and 1921, but the Wachau series earned genuine attention among contemporary collectors for its artistic quality — unusual enough that some issues were printed in quantities exceeding local need, sold directly to collectors rather than spent.
Liesl Kinzel's involvement as designer places this squarely in the tradition of commissioning working artists for Wachau Notgeld, a regional practice that gave the series its lasting appeal. Eduard Sieger's Vienna press handled numerous Austrian municipal issues of this type. Three signatories were required for validity.
