| Opmerkingen |
Staßfurt, in the Prussian province of Saxony, was the birthplace of the modern potash mining industry — the first commercial potash mine opened there in 1861 — and the town's notgeld issues of the early 1920s reflect that industrial identity directly. This 50 Pfennig piece belongs to the wave of municipal emergency currency that flooded Germany after postwar coin shortages left small-denomination transactions nearly impossible.
J. P. Himmer of Augsburg was a prolific notgeld printer during this period, producing issues for dozens of municipalities across Bavaria and beyond. Their work on these small civic commissions was competent and consistent, if rarely distinguished.
