Osterhorn is a village in the Hoernerkirchen district of Holstein, and its municipal Notgeld issues of 1921 belong to the second wave of German small-change emergency money — driven not by wartime disruption but by the chronic coin shortage that persisted well into the early Weimar period. Municipalities at this scale rarely commissioned their own printing; the assignment to Konrad Hanf in Hamburg reflects how deeply the Notgeld business had penetrated local commercial printing firms by this point.
Hanf produced notes for dozens of small Holstein issuers during this period, which makes individual attribution straightforward but also means the physical quality varies considerably across the run.
