Comments

Belgard an der Persante — today Białogard in northwestern Poland — was a small Pomeranian town whose municipal savings bank issued this Notgeld during the inflationary emergency of the early 1920s. Flemming & Wiskott in Glogau were among the more prolific regional printers of German emergency currency, supplying dozens of smaller municipalities that lacked access to the major Frankfurt or Berlin printing houses.

The 90 × 60 mm format is on the smaller end of Notgeld production, consistent with fractional pfennig issues intended for genuine small-change circulation rather than the collector-targeted Serienscheine that flooded the market from 1921 onward.
