Opmerkingen

Bad Kösen's 50 Pfennig Notgeld from 1921 was issued during Germany's acute small-change shortage, when municipal authorities across the country were authorized — effectively forced — to plug the gap left by hoarded metal coinage. Eduard Giltsch in Jena was a reliable regional printer for this kind of work, supplying a number of Thuringian communities during the same period.

The Rudelsburg, a ruined 12th-century castle above the Saale valley, gave this note its name and its collector appeal. Notgeld from scenic spa towns like Bad Kösen was frequently printed with tourism in mind — municipalities knew that collectors would absorb quantities that never returned for redemption, effectively a subsidy on the issue.
