Schierke is a small resort village on the northern slope of the Brocken — the highest peak in the Harz mountains and the site of Goethe's famous Walpurgisnacht scene in Faust. This 1921 Notgeld issue was printed by Louis Koch in nearby Halberstadt, one of the more active regional printers serving the flood of municipal emergency currency that swept Germany during the postwar inflationary period.
Schierke issued its Notgeld partly as a functional necessity and partly as a collector-driven revenue scheme — by 1921, many small German towns had recognized that philatelists and collectors were snapping up Notgeld as souvenirs, and deliberately issued attractive series in excess of local need.
