| Comments |
Kloster Zinna is a village in Brandenburg that takes its name from a Cistercian monastery founded there in 1170. By 1920, when this Notgeld was issued, the municipality was small enough that its emergency currency was contracted to R. Stock in the nearby market town of Jüterbog — a common arrangement during the postwar inflationary period, when even minor Prussian communities were authorized to cover coin shortages with locally printed scrip.
The Magistrat signatory Reilmann would have had administrative oversight of the issue, though the actual quantity printed for this series remains unrecorded in standard references.
