Opmerkingen

Monschau — known until 1918 as Aachen — issued this Notgeld during the severe small-change shortage that gripped the Rhineland in the early Weimar years. The border town had particular reason for instability: the Versailles settlement left it uncomfortably close to the Belgian occupation zone, and local municipal finance was under strain from both reparations disruption and the broader collapse of confidence in Reichsbank coin circulation.

Lütkens is credited as designer, a name appearing across several Rhenish Notgeld issues of the period. Whether this was a local commission or a shared plate design adapted for Monschau specifically is not firmly established.
