Erfurt's municipal notgeld issues emerged from the acute small-change shortages that plagued German cities in 1917–1918, as wartime metal requisitions stripped copper coinage from circulation and the imperial mints struggled to meet demand. The "Reibstein" designation identifies a specific local merchant or issuing authority within the city's notgeld network — a reminder that German emergency coinage at this level was often as much a commercial instrument as a civic one.
Copper-plated zinc was the pragmatic compromise of the period: enough surface copper to pass visually, with zinc conserving the strategic metal underneath.
