50 Heller Siezenheim

Siezenheim is a small village west of Salzburg, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities it resorted to printing its own Notgeld during the severe coin shortage that followed the First World War. This 50 Heller note was produced locally by Zaunrith's print shop in Salzburg — a practical choice that kept costs down and turnaround fast. The four signatories include the Bürgermeister and three Gemeinderäte, whose handwritten or facsimile signatures gave the note its legal standing under the community's own authority rather than any central banking framework.

The "b" suffix in the Jaksch reference indicates a variant within the series — likely a color or paper distinction from the "a" type.
