| Opmerkingen |
Weitra, a small walled town in the Waldviertel region of Lower Austria, issued notgeld during the severe coin shortage that followed Austria's defeat in the First World War. The Habsburg monetary system had effectively collapsed, and municipalities across Austria filled the gap themselves, printing low-denomination paper in denominations nobody had bothered to produce in metal.
The 20 Heller was among the most common notgeld denominations issued by Austrian Stadtgemeinden in 1920, as the heller itself was already an obsolete unit by the time the Austrian krone was replaced by the schilling in 1925.
