Altenfelden is a small market commune in Upper Austria's Mühlviertel, and this 50 Heller note is a product of the catastrophic postwar currency disorder that gripped Austria between 1919 and 1922. With the old Habsburg monetary system in collapse and the new republic unable to supply adequate small change, hundreds of Austrian municipalities printed their own Notgeld — emergency money — to keep local commerce moving. Altenfelden was one of the smallest communities to do so.
The Jaksch reference places this in the well-documented JPR series of Upper Austrian municipal issues. Locally produced, which accounts for the modest printing quality typical of rural commune issues from this region.
