| Opmerkingen |
Liegnitz was one of the larger Silesian cities to issue its own Notgeld during the postwar currency chaos, and having a local geographic institute serve as the printer was not unusual — such firms already operated high-quality lithographic presses for cartographic work, and municipal authorities with printing contracts on their doorstep used them. Paul Baron's operation produced reasonably crisp work for a non-specialist banknote printer.
The broader Liegnitz Notgeld series of 1920 was issued to address the acute small-denomination coin shortage that plagued German municipalities after the war. These notes circulated locally and were theoretically redeemable by the city, though redemption compliance varied considerably across German issuers of this period.
