Gottesberg — now Boguszów-Gorce in southwestern Poland — was a small Silesian textile and mining town whose municipal authority issued this note during the Weimar-era Notgeld emergency. The Stadtblatt-Druckerei was the town's own newspaper press, a common arrangement in smaller German municipalities that lacked contracts with specialist security printers but needed scrip in volume and quickly.
The watermarked paper is worth noting — many comparable small-town Notgeld issues skipped security features entirely, relying on local familiarity rather than technical barriers to counterfeiting.
