60 Heller Brandenberg in Tirol

Brandenberg is a small Tyrolean village in the Inn valley, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities after World War I, it issued its own emergency paper currency — Notgeld — to address the catastrophic coin shortage that followed the collapse of the Habsburg economy. Wagner in Innsbruck printed for numerous Tyrolean communities during this period, and the quality is accordingly modest.

The JPR0099d designation indicates this is one of several denominations within the Brandenberg series. At 60 Heller, it sits at a mid-point in that run — practical for small transactions at a moment when the new Austrian crown was still finding its footing.
