| Opmerkingen |
Oberamtspflege Ravensburg issued this note in 1918 under the emergency currency provisions that had been gradually loosening since 1914, allowing district-level administrative bodies — not just municipalities or chambers of commerce — to put paper into circulation as the imperial coinage disappeared into hoards and metal drives. The Oberamtspflege was the fiscal arm of the Oberamt, the Württemberg district administration, making this a genuinely unusual issuing authority: not a town, not a private firm, but a mid-tier bureaucratic office covering the surrounding rural districts rather than the city of Ravensburg alone.
Local Notgeld of this type was printed in enormous quantities during 1918 and frequently destroyed or redeemed within months. Surviving examples from administrative rather than municipal issuers are proportionally rarer.
