Altenburg's 1921 notgeld series takes its name from the Prinzenraub — the 1455 abduction of two Saxon princes by the knight Kunz von Kaufungen, a crime that ended on Altenburger soil when Kaufungen was captured and beheaded within the day. The town leaned hard into that story during the notgeld boom, and the Schwarz printing house in Lindenberg im Allgäu — a firm that handled a substantial volume of southern German notgeld commissions — produced this series to meet it.
The 50 Pfennig denomination sits in the middle of the series, catalogued under DeNG 1/2#21.1 (5).
