| Opmerkingen |
Zeitz, a mid-sized Thuringian town with a long episcopal history, was among the hundreds of German municipalities forced to print their own fractional currency during the Kleingeldnot — the small-change famine — that gripped Germany from roughly 1916 onward. The Magistrat issued this Notgeld as a stopgap when metal coinage disappeared into hoarding and wartime metal requisitions simultaneously drained local reserves.
Municipal 50 Pfennig issues from Zeitz are common enough that collector premiums are modest, but the Magistrat series is notable for its relatively straightforward authorizing language compared to the more elaborate propaganda-laden issues some Saxon towns produced in the same period.
