| Comments |
Osnabrück's municipal Pfennig notes from this period belong to the vast flood of German Kleingeldscheine issued as the Reichsbank's coin production collapsed under the weight of post-war economic dislocation. The Magistrat turned to Gebrüder Jänecke — a well-established Hannover printing house with deep roots in high-quality commercial lithography — rather than one of the more prolific emergency note printers of the era, which gives this series a noticeably cleaner finish than many comparable municipal issues.
The DeNG reference number suggests multiple variants within the 1032 series, likely differentiated by date, color, or serial format across the 1921–22 window.
