Issued to commemorate a Notgeld exhibition held in Halle an der Saale in 1921, this piece occupies an odd category — Notgeld produced not from financial necessity but as a collectible souvenir of the Notgeld phenomenon itself. By 1921, the emergency money craze had turned fully self-referential: towns were printing series specifically to sell to collectors, and exhibition issues like this one were rarely spent at all.
The designer credit "d. n. Sallurik" remains unverified in standard reference literature — possibly a pseudonym or a local commercial artist whose wider work has not been documented.
