Speyer's 1917 zinc Notgeld issue belongs to the first wave of municipal emergency coinage produced across Germany after the Imperial government's wartime metal requisitions stripped copper and nickel from everyday circulation. Cities were left to improvise, and the authorization process was chaotic — many municipalities struck coins first and sought approval afterward. Zinc was the compromise material: abundant, unstrategic, and deeply unpopular with the public, who found it corroded quickly and stuck together in pockets.
Funck 513.1 indicates this is the primary catalogued variety for Speyer, suggesting at least one die variant exists in the series.
