Gatersleben is a small agricultural village in the Harz foothills, and its decision to issue notgeld in 1921 reflects how thoroughly the postwar small-change shortage had penetrated even minor rural communes. By that point the German notgeld boom was well past its emergency phase and well into its collector-driven second act — many municipalities were printing series specifically to sell to hobbyists, generating municipal revenue in the process.
Louis Koch of Halberstadt handled a significant volume of local Saxony-Anhalt notgeld work during this period. W. Dockhorn's designer credit is uncommon enough to note.
