Schleissheim's 50 Heller Notgeld was issued during the early Austrian emergency currency wave that followed the collapse of the Habsburg monarchy — a period when hundreds of municipalities printed their own small-denomination scrip to address a crippling shortage of coins in circulation. The Linz printing firm handled both production and design through v. Haase, an arrangement common among Upper Austrian communities that lacked access to Vienna's established printers.
Bürgermeister Sattleder's signature authorizes the note under municipal seal. The Jaksc/Pick reference JPR0961-50 places it firmly within the documented Austrian Notgeld corpus, though Schleissheim issues appear infrequently on the market.
