| Opmerkingen |
Gotha's Notgeld issues of the early 1920s came out of the same inflationary pressure squeezing municipalities across Weimar Germany — the Reichsbank simply couldn't supply enough small-denomination coinage to keep local commerce moving. The city council stepped in as issuer, with the Hofbuchdruckerei — the court printing house that had served the Ernestine ducal household for generations — handling production locally. That institutional continuity shows in the print quality, which tends to be noticeably cleaner than emergency issues run off by less experienced provincial printers.
Dr. Scheffler served as Oberbürgermeister during a genuinely difficult administrative period, as Gotha was absorbed into the newly formed state of Thuringia in 1920.
