| Opmerkingen |
Bilsen was a rural commune of a few hundred souls in the Kreis Pinneberg, and its decision to issue notgeld in 1921 places it among thousands of German municipalities that stepped into the currency vacuum left by chronic small-change shortages in the postwar years. By 1921 the emergency money phenomenon had long since crossed from practical necessity into something more deliberate — many municipalities were printing for collectors as much as for commerce, and Konrad Hanf in Hamburg was one of the smaller regional printers serving that trade.
Whether this issue actually circulated in Bilsen or went straight into dealer packets is the more pertinent question for any serious collector.
