| Opmerkingen |
Schleiz was the capital of Reuss jüngerer Linie, one of the smallest sovereign principalities in the German Empire — a territory so diminutive it ceased to exist entirely in November 1918 when the last prince abdicated. This note arrived into that political vacuum. The city, no longer a dynastic seat, was now just another municipality scrambling to address the acute small-change shortage that swept Germany in the immediate postwar period.
Notgeld of this size was typically lithographed locally, sometimes by a town printer with no specialized currency experience. Schleiz had no major printing house, which often shows in the production quality of its issues.
