| Anmerkungen |
Leipzig's zoo issued its own notgeld in 1921 as part of the broader German emergency money phenomenon — municipalities, businesses, and institutions printing small-denomination scrip to address the coin shortage that had persisted since the war. A zoological garden doing so is not unusual for the period; hundreds of German commercial and civic bodies did the same. What gives these zoo-issued pieces their collector following is the specificity of the issuer: this is promotional scrip as much as functional currency, and the zoo's administration knew it.
Dr. Gebbing signed as director. The reference DeNG 1/2#0787.1 places it firmly within the documented Saxony notgeld corpus.
