| Additional information |
Alexanderwerk A. von der Nahmer A.G. was a Berlin-based manufacturer of machine tools and food processing equipment, and like hundreds of German industrial firms during the First World War emergency, it issued its own notgeld to keep wages flowing when state-minted small coinage vanished from circulation. Zinc was the wartime compromise — copper and nickel had been requisitioned for munitions production by 1916, leaving municipalities and private employers alike to strike whatever base metal they could source.
