Norderney's 1918 Notgeld issue is part of the enormous wave of municipal emergency currency that flooded Germany as central bank coins disappeared from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply unavailable in the quantities a wartime economy demanded. The island municipality, a North Sea resort town, was among hundreds of small authorities forced to print their own fractional denominations to keep local commerce moving.
Edler & Krische, the Hannover firm responsible for this printing, handled a substantial volume of regional Notgeld work during this period. The watermarked paper is an unusual security measure for such a low-denomination emergency issue — most comparable municipal notes of 1918 dispensed with it entirely.
