| Beschrijving voorzijde | Green and black letterpress Notgeld note with the denomination numeral '20' at upper left and upper right corners. A central vignette presents a landscape view of the village of Mitter-Arnsdorf, set against rolling hills, with a church steeple and riverside foliage rendered in fine line engraving. Ornamental vine and scroll motifs flank the vignette on both sides, evoking the Wachau wine-growing region, with the inscription 'Mitter Arnsdorf' on a banner beneath the vignette and 'WACHAUER NOTGELD' in bold Gothic lettering across the lower portion. |

One of hundreds of Notgeld issues that flooded the Austrian countryside after the collapse of the Habsburg economy, this Spitz an der Donau piece was printed by G.S. Tomschik in nearby Krems — a local press handling local need, with no pretense of central authority behind it. The Wachau valley municipalities improvised their own fractional currency because coins had effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted as the old monetary order disintegrated.
The Jaksc/Pick reference places this firmly in the hyper-localized Austrian Notgeld documentation — a category where survival rates are genuinely uneven, and Spitz issues appear infrequently in trade.
