| Comments |
Tullnerbach is a small market community in Lower Austria, west of Vienna along the Wienerwald. Like hundreds of Austrian municipalities in 1920, it issued its own notgeld to address a severe shortage of small coins — the postwar monetary system had collapsed badly enough that even tiny rural communes were printing their own fractional currency. These village-level issues were produced locally or by small regional printers with no involvement from Vienna's central authorities.
The Jaksch/Pick reference JPR1084-50 places this squarely in the Lower Austrian municipal notgeld corpus. Most Tullnerbach issues from this period had very limited print runs and circulated only within the immediate community.
