Comments

Berneck im Fichtelgebirge was among the hundreds of small Bavarian towns that issued Kleingeldersatz notes in 1921, when chronic coin shortages — driven by postwar metal hoarding and inflationary pressure — forced local authorities to print their own fractional currency. The Löffler & Co. press in Greiz, Thuringia, handled notgeld production for numerous municipalities across the region during this period, and the relationship between a Bavarian issuer and a Thuringian printer was entirely routine for the era.

The DeNG 6#B34.8b suffix indicates a variant within the Berneck series — likely a color or paper distinction from closely related issues catalogued under the same base number.
