Comments

Oberschlierbach is a small parish municipality in Upper Austria, and this 30 Heller Notgeld was issued during the acute coin shortage that gripped Austria in the immediate postwar years. Municipal and parish-level issuers at this scale were producing emergency scrip precisely because the old Habsburg coinage had effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply absorbed into the chaos of imperial dissolution.

Karl Huber operated out of Urfahr, the town directly across the Danube from Linz, and handled a considerable volume of Upper Austrian Notgeld commissions during this period. The JPR0694b suffix indicates this is the second variety within the Oberschlierbach 30 Heller type — likely a reissue or a minor printing variant from the same commission.
