Comments

Timelkam is a small market town in Upper Austria, and like hundreds of similar municipalities it issued Notgeld during the postwar currency emergency when small-denomination coins had effectively vanished from circulation. The 1920 date places this squarely in the second wave of Austrian local emergency money — after the initial chaos of 1918–1919, many communities issued more formally printed replacement pieces as the shortage dragged on longer than anyone had anticipated.

Johann Leitner signed as Bürgermeister. That's the only authentication this note carried.
