Altenburg's 1921 Notgeld series takes its name from the Prinzenraub — the 1455 abduction of the Saxon princes Ernst and Albrecht from Altenburg Castle by the knight Kunz von Kaufungen, one of the more dramatic episodes in late medieval German dynastic history. The city leaned heavily into this local legend during the Notgeld boom, when municipalities across Weimar Germany competed to issue collectable pictorial emergency currency rather than purely functional small change.
J. A. Schwarz of Lindenberg im Allgäu printed a substantial volume of Notgeld for various German municipalities during this period, and the production quality here reflects that commercial specialization.
