| Additional information |
Köslin — now Koszalin in northwestern Poland — was a mid-sized Pomeranian town whose municipal authority issued notgeld during the acute small-change shortages of World War I, when the German imperial government had stripped copper and nickel from circulation for war production. Zinc was the metal left available to municipal issuers by that point. These civic emergency issues were produced under a patchwork of local administrative decisions rather than any central directive, which accounts for the variation in types catalogued under Funck 252.
