Frankfurt an der Oder issued Notgeld in considerable volume during the inflation years, and this 25 Pfennig piece is catalogued under two variants (377.1 and 377.2), distinguished by minor printing differences typical of municipally managed short runs where quality control was inconsistent. The designer credit "Jochem" appears on pieces from several Brandenburg-region municipalities in this period — likely a local commercial artist rather than a specialist printer's engraver.
By 1922, most small-denomination Notgeld had already crossed from genuine emergency currency into the collector-driven "Serienscheine" market, so actual circulation wear on surviving examples is often minimal.
