| Comments |
Randow was a rural Kreis (administrative district) immediately east of Stettin, on the Pomeranian plain. Like hundreds of German municipalities and districts, its Kreisausschuss — the elected district committee — resorted to issuing Notgeld in 1921 as small-denomination Reichsmark coinage remained almost impossible to source in everyday commerce. The inflationary spiral had barely begun in earnest; this is transitional-era paper, not the spectacular hyperinflation issues that followed.
M. Bauchwitz was a Stettin printing house that handled a number of Pomeranian local issues during this period. The four-variant numbering in the DeNG reference (1095.1–4/12) indicates a set of twelve sub-types, almost certainly distinguished by reverse text, color, or serial variation rather than denomination change.
