Comments

Dinslaken's 1920 Notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of municipal emergency currency that flooded Germany as coin shortages reached a crisis point in the immediate postwar years. Gebrüder Parcus of Munich produced enormous quantities of Notgeld for municipalities across Germany during this period — their output was prolific enough that their imprint appears on issues from dozens of towns that had no obvious connection to Bavaria.

Fr. Salzmann's signature here designates a local civic official authorizing the emission, not a bank officer — a distinction that mattered legally under the Notgeld regulations of the time.
