Opmerkingen

Vereinigte Aluminium-Werke A.G. was one of Germany's major aluminum producers, and like hundreds of industrial firms during the hyperinflationary spiral of 1922, it issued its own notgeld to pay workers when the Reichsbank simply could not supply enough currency fast enough. The Lautawerk facility — the company's primary smelting works — issued this piece as a wage-payment instrument, not for retail commerce.

Aluminum as a substrate is the notable curiosity here. While paper notgeld was ubiquitous, a handful of issuers chose metal sheet, leather, or pressed fiber. The material choice may reflect the obvious: the plant had aluminum on hand.
