| Beschrijving voorzijde | Octagonal notgeld token featuring a detailed panoramic cityscape of Hamm (Westfalen) set within an oval cartouche framed by scrollwork at its base. The city view depicts rooftops, a prominent church steeple rising at center, and a river in the foreground. Above the cartouche, the inscription HAMMONA with the founding date 1609 appears in the field. The peripheral legend reads HAMM WESTF. in raised Latin letters separated by bullet points, and the date 1918 is inscribed at the base outside the cartouche. The octagonal border is edged with a continuous reeded pattern. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hamm's 1918 iron Pfennig issue belongs to the vast German Kriegsgeld and Notgeld output that municipalities scrambled to produce as wartime metal requisitions drained copper and nickel from circulation entirely. By mid-1918, the imperial coinage system had effectively collapsed at the local level, leaving cities to commission their own emergency pieces through whatever industrial capacity remained. Iron was the default — cheap, abundant, and already familiar from the Reich's own wartime subsidiary coinage introduced in 1915.
The Funck reference places this among a documented series of Hamm issues, suggesting the city struck multiple denominations rather than a single stopgap piece.
