| Aanvullende informatie |
Geiselhöring is a small market town in Lower Bavaria, and its 1918 notgeld issues belong to the vast emergency coinage wave that swept German municipalities as wartime metal shortages stripped circulation of nearly all official small change. The Imperial government had been pulling nickel and copper from coins since 1915, leaving local authorities to plug the gap themselves. Nickel-plated zinc was a characteristic compromise of the period — base enough to be available, plated enough to pass.
The Funck reference places this squarely among the more obscure municipal issuers, where surviving populations tend to be small simply because original production runs were modest and tied to purely local need.
