| Aanvullende informatie |
Burgsteinfurt's 1917 zinc notgeld issue was a direct consequence of wartime metal requisitions that stripped German municipalities of their copper and nickel supplies for shell casings and military hardware. Cities across the Westphalian region were left scrambling to keep small change in circulation, and zinc — an inferior, corrosion-prone substitute — became the material of last resort. Burgsteinfurt, a small administrative town in Münsterland, had no mint of its own; these pieces were produced under municipal authorization through contracted private minting.
The .2 suffix in the Funck and Menzel references indicates a recognized die variety, distinguishing this piece from at least one other emission of the same type.
