| Comments |
Hall in Tirol's Heller notgeld were among the more carefully produced municipal emergency issues of the postwar Austrian inflation period. Wagner was a well-established Innsbruck printing house, and the quality of their work for Tyrolean municipalities generally exceeded what many larger cities managed with outside contractors scrambling to meet demand in 1919–1920.
The 30 Heller denomination is specific to the transitional moment when the old krone system was fragmenting but not yet replaced — municipalities issued their own fractions because small change had effectively vanished from circulation entirely.
