Manebach is a small mining village in the Thuringian Forest, historically dependent on coal extraction and glassmaking. Like hundreds of German municipalities in 1921, it issued its own Kleingeldersatz — substitute small change — to compensate for the near-total disappearance of metal coins from circulation as Weimar inflation began to bite. These local Notgeld issues were simultaneously practical necessity and, increasingly, a cottage industry: many municipalities printed series designed to be collected rather than spent, generating revenue from philatelists and tourists.
Whether Manebach's issue was genuinely utilitarian or collector-driven is the real question with any series this small.
