Bad Nauheim's 1917 Notgeld issue belongs to the first wave of municipal emergency currency that flooded Germany after the Reichsbank restricted small-coin circulation in 1916. Metal had been commandeered for the war effort, and towns were left to solve the change shortage themselves. Carl Naumann's Druckerei in Frankfurt was a workhorse printer for regional Notgeld; the guilloche work is functional rather than ambitious, aimed at deterring casual forgery rather than displaying any serious intaglio craft.
Survival rates for these early paper issues are lower than for the celebrated 1920–21 artistic Notgeld series, which were printed speculatively for collectors from the outset.
