| Comments |
St. Johann in Tirol issued this Heller notgeld during the prolonged small-coin famine that gripped Austria well into the early 1920s — the postwar collapse of the krone made low-denomination metallic coinage economically pointless to mint, and municipalities across Tirol were left to fill the gap themselves. Wagner in Innsbruck handled the printing for a considerable number of these local issues, which means the production quality is relatively consistent but the notes themselves are not individually rare.
Josef Hofinger's signature as Bürgermeister anchors the note to a specific civic administration navigating a genuinely chaotic monetary moment.
