| Opmerkingen |
Limburg an der Lahn was one of hundreds of German municipalities that began issuing Notgeld in 1918 as the wartime economy strangled the supply of small-denomination coinage. The Reichsbank had effectively stopped releasing fractional currency for civilian use, leaving cities to print their own stop-gap issues. C. Naumann's Druckerei in Frankfurt was a commercial job printer, not a specialist banknote firm, which is why the production quality on these municipal notes varies considerably even within a single series.
Designer P. Assmann is credited on this issue — relatively uncommon for Notgeld, where designer attribution was frequently omitted entirely.
