Hamburg Zoo issued this note in 1921 as Notgeld — emergency small-change scrip that flooded Germany during the coin shortage of the early Weimar period. Zoologischer Garten Hamburg was one of hundreds of commercial and municipal bodies that printed their own fractional currency when Reichsmünzen effectively vanished from circulation, hoarded or melted as inflation accelerated.
Hartung & Co. in Hamburg ran a substantial print quantity for a zoo-issued piece — over twelve million notes. That figure reflects not novelty collecting demand but genuine transactional necessity at the turnstiles.
