| Opmerkingen |
Gerolstein's notgeld was issued by the local tourism association — the Eifeler Verkehrsverein — rather than a municipality or savings bank, which was unusual even by the permissive standards of the 1921 kleingeldersatz boom. By that point German notgeld had shifted decisively from emergency scrip into a semi-commercial phenomenon, with issuers well aware that collectors were absorbing notes before they ever reached a cash register. Schaar & Dathe in Trier were a reliable regional printer for Rhineland series of this type.
Whether this note saw any genuine retail circulation in Gerolstein is doubtful.
