| Anmerkungen |
Eschershausen is a small town in Lower Saxony with a population that barely crested 3,000 in the early 1920s — yet like thousands of German municipalities during the postwar inflationary spiral, its city council was forced into the business of money printing when Reichsbank small-denomination coins vanished from circulation entirely. This Notgeld issue filled a genuine transactional gap, not a commemorative one.
The DeNG reference places this within the exhaustively catalogued Grabowski-Mehl notgeld corpus. The "1/2" series indicator suggests at least two distinct printings or design variants were recorded for this denomination from the same issuer.
