Gemeinde-issued Notgeld from the final weeks of the Third Reich. Scheidegg, a small market town in the Bavarian Alps near the Austrian border, was among hundreds of municipalities forced to print their own emergency fractional currency as the Reichsbank's distribution network collapsed in early 1945. Allied advances had severed supply lines, and coin shortages — already severe after years of metal requisitions for the war effort — became acute.
Notes of this type rarely survived in quantity; most were redeemed quickly once occupation currency took hold, and many were simply discarded.
