| Opmerkingen |
Steinach, a small glassworking town in the Thuringian highlands, issued this Notgeld during the acute small-change shortage that followed Germany's postwar economic disruption. Municipal authorities across hundreds of German towns printed their own emergency fractional currency in 1920–1921, and Steinach's series is typical of the administrative tier — issued by the Magistrat rather than a savings bank or merchants' association, meaning it carried direct civic authority and was theoretically redeemable at the town treasury.
The DeNG reference places it within the documented Saxe-Meiningen issues catalogued by Grabowski and Mehl. Steinach notes from this series are not considered rarities, but attrition through redemption and discard thinned the surviving population considerably.
