Norddorf is the smallest of the three villages on Amrum, a narrow North Frisian island whose total population in 1921 numbered only a few hundred. That a local Verkehrsverein — a tourism and civic promotion association — would issue its own emergency currency is less surprising than it sounds: the post-WWI Notgeld wave swept through thousands of German municipalities, and island communities with limited access to Reichsbank coin supplies had particular practical incentive. Hartung & Co. in Hamburg handled a significant volume of such regional Notgeld commissions during this period.
Arthur Götting of Preetz designed the note — a Schleswig-Holstein printmaker working the Notgeld circuit at a moment when that was viable commercial work.
