| Opmerkingen |
Stecklenberg is a small village in the Harz region of Saxony-Anhalt, and this note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept German municipalities in 1921 as small-denomination coinage remained chronically scarce in the postwar economy. Thousands of German towns issued their own emergency money during this period, but the sheer granularity of issuance — down to villages of a few hundred inhabitants — makes the Stecklenberg series a collector curiosity rather than a monetary artifact of any real weight.
The DeNG reference suffix ".2-1/5" indicates this is one of five known varieties within the second main type of the issue.
