| Aanvullende informatie |
Gebrüder Meer was a major textile manufacturer based in Mönchengladbach, a city that became one of the Rhineland's principal cotton-processing centers in the nineteenth century. This zinc notgeld piece was issued during the acute small-change shortages of World War I, when the German Imperial government's requisitioning of copper and nickel for war production stripped the regular coinage system of its subsidiary denominations almost overnight. Private firms, municipalities, and civic bodies across Germany filled the gap with their own emergency issues — zinc being one of the few metals still available in commercial quantities.
