Neubrandenburg's city council — the Rat der Stadt — issued this Notgeld note as part of the municipal emergency currency that flooded German circulation between 1917 and 1921, when chronic small-coin shortages made local scrip a practical necessity rather than a political statement. The Pick Grabowski-Mehl reference places this within the third sub-type of the 935 series, suggesting at least minor design or print variants exist across the group.
Neubrandenburg was a mid-sized Mecklenburg town with no particular monetary infrastructure of its own; the notes were almost certainly produced by a commercial printer on contract.
