| Anmerkungen |
Bad Kösen's 1921 Notgeld issue belongs to the vast flood of municipal emergency money produced across Germany as postwar inflation gutted the Reichsmark's purchasing power and small coinage disappeared entirely from circulation. Otto Henning AG in Greiz was a regional printer that handled Notgeld contracts for numerous Thuringian towns during this period — workmanlike production, not prestige printing.
Bad Kösen itself was known primarily as a spa town on the Saale river, with saline springs that had been commercially exploited since the medieval period. The local economy ran on health tourism, which made the disruption of small-denomination currency particularly acute for daily transactions with visitors.
