50 Pfennig Sights Series - Bauernhof in Altenbreitungen

Altenbreitungen and Frauenbreitungen are two small Thuringian villages in the Werratal that issued this note jointly during the Notgeld fever of 1921 — an unusual co-issuing arrangement that reflects the modest tax base of either village alone. Adolf Forker of Leipzig was a minor commercial printer who handled a significant volume of provincial Kleingeldscheine during this period, working to tight deadlines as municipalities scrambled to address the small-change shortage left by wartime coin hoarding.

The DeNG reference suffix "(1)" indicates a single known signature or control variant, suggesting limited administrative complexity in the issue.
