| Opmerkingen |
Ilsenburg, a small town in the Harz district, issued this 50 Pfennig note in 1917 under the Gemeindekasse — the municipal treasury — as part of the enormous wave of Kleingeldersatz, or small-change substitution, that swept German towns and cities once the Reich's metal coinage disappeared from circulation in the early war years. The Imperial government had sanctioned local emergency issuance precisely because the central monetary system could not cope with the chronic shortage of fractional currency.
Ilsenburg's issue is among the more modest municipal efforts from the region — no elaborate multicolor printing, no resort to private printers with established banknote credentials.
