Roda — now Rodewisch, but in 1920 still the small Thuringian town of Roda in Altenburg — issued this 25 Pfennig Notgeld as a direct consequence of the nationwide small-change famine that followed the First World War. Hoarding of metal coinage and the Reichsbank's inability to supply adequate fractional currency pushed thousands of German municipalities to print their own emergency paper. The Stadtrat here was one of hundreds of local councils exercising that improvised authority in 1920, the peak year for such issues.
Paper Notgeld of this type was printed in enormous quantities and largely redeemed and destroyed within months of issue, which paradoxically makes genuinely circulated examples harder to find than uncirculated ones pulled from collectors' series sold directly to the philatelic trade — a practice already common by 1920.
