| Opmerkingen |
Wejherowo (then still known to many as Neustadt in Westpreußen) was transferred from Germany to Poland under the Treaty of Versailles in January 1920, and this note was issued by the newly installed Polish district authority almost immediately after the handover. The timing matters: the Polish state's own currency infrastructure hadn't yet reached Pomerelia, and locally issued emergency notes like this one bridged the administrative gap left by the retreating German mark system.
These Starostwo issues are among the shortest-lived of the Polish powiat notgeld — the series was rendered obsolete within months as the Polish mark displaced local substitutes.
