Pick 44 is something of a postscript note — it carries the design and imprint of the Austro-Hungarian Bank, an institution that had already ceased to exist by the time most of these circulated. The Austro-Hungarian Bank was formally liquidated following the dissolution of the empire in 1918, and the successor states each proceeded to stamp or overstamp the outstanding banknote stock as a mechanism for asserting monetary control and screening capital flight.

Unstamped examples like this one were still technically valid in Austria during the chaotic transitional period before the new Austrian National Bank was properly constituted. The 1920 date reflects continued printing from existing plates, not a functioning imperial system.
