Steinheid is a small village in the Thuringian forest — part of the former duchy of Saxe-Meiningen — and its appearance in the Notgeld record is entirely a product of the 1920 small-change crisis, when coin shortages forced even the most minor municipalities to issue their own emergency paper. The DeNG reference places this within a well-catalogued regional series, though Steinheid's issues are among the more obscure entries in that corpus.

The dual signatures of Eichhorn and Richter almost certainly represent local municipal officials rather than any banking authority — Saxe-Meiningen had ceased to exist as a sovereign state by this point, absorbed into Thuringia in 1920, the very year of issue.
