Hildesheim's Magistrat issued this note in 1918 under the emergency currency provisions that had by then become routine across German municipalities — the Reichsbank's inability to supply adequate small-denomination coinage in wartime forced thousands of local authorities to print their own Notgeld. J. C. König & Ebhardt, a Hanover firm with deep roots in commercial printing and bookbinding, handled a substantial volume of this municipal emergency work throughout Lower Saxony.
The 50 Pfennig denomination was among the most actively circulated of the Hildesheim series, worn down in everyday transactions while metal coinage remained scarce.
