Neisse's 1921 notgeld issue was one of thousands of emergency municipal coinages produced during Germany's postwar economic collapse, when the central government's inability to supply adequate small change forced cities and towns to fund their own token currencies. Neisse, a prosperous Silesian cathedral town with a strong Catholic identity and a long history under Habsburg and then Prussian rule, was among the more culturally assertive issuers — the Schöner Brunnen (Beautiful Fountain) motif referencing local civic pride rather than abstract allegory.
Aluminium was chosen out of necessity; copper and other base metals were still being hoarded or recovered for industrial use. By late 1923, inflation had rendered all such pfennig-denominated tokens economically worthless before most ever circulated meaningfully.
