| Opmerkingen |
Gumpoldskirchen is a Lower Austrian wine-producing village south of Vienna, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities it began issuing its own Notgeld in 1920 when the postwar coinage shortage left small transactions effectively impossible. These municipal emergency issues were printed locally or by small Viennese commercial printers — F. Seitenberg, operating out of Vienna's third district, handled several such commissions. The series was not a banking instrument in any meaningful sense; the Gemeinde was simply plugging a gap that the Austrian state could not fill.
The Jaksc catalogue remains the primary reference for Austrian local Notgeld, and the "a" suffix on this pick number indicates it is the earlier of at least two known variants.
