| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, the crowned municipal arms of Beilngries are displayed centrally, featuring a quartered shield surmounted by a mural crown with elaborate scrollwork supporters on either side. The circular legend STADT BEILNGRIES runs along the outer periphery, flanked by two stars, with the date 1917 positioned in the lower exergue beneath the beaded border. The overall design is struck in low relief on the octagonal zinc flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Beilngries is a small market town in the Altmühl valley of Bavaria, and its 1917 zinc notgeld issue belongs to the vast wave of emergency municipal coinage that flooded Germany when the imperial government requisitioned copper and nickel for war production. Thousands of towns were left to fend for themselves, contracting local or regional mints to strike whatever base metal remained available. Zinc was the default — abundant, cheap, and utterly unpleasant to strike cleanly, which explains the frequently poor surface definition seen across this entire class of issue.
