Additional information

Chr. Strunck & Sohn was a tannery operating in Sprendlingen, in the Rhineland, and like hundreds of German industrial firms during the First World War, it issued notgeld tokens to compensate for the near-total disappearance of official small coinage after 1914. Iron was the mandated substitute once copper and nickel were requisitioned for war production. These firm-issued pieces circulated as internal wage tokens or local scrip, redeemable only within the issuer's commercial orbit.
