Kyritz, a small town in the Prignitz district of Brandenburg, issued this Notgeld note during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Germany in the years immediately following World War One. Federal coinage had vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply inadequate in quantity — forcing thousands of municipalities to print their own emergency fractional currency. Kyritz was one of hundreds doing exactly this in 1920, the peak year for municipal Notgeld production.
These small-town issues were printed in enormous variety and often in deliberately limited runs, fueling a secondary collector market that the issuers themselves exploited — some municipalities printed far more than local commerce required, selling directly to collectors for hard currency.
