The entire field is enclosed within an ornate foliate border in dark blue on cream stock, and the issuing authority 'Markt Irdning i/Ennstal Obersteier' is inscribed in red Gothic script along the lower margin, accompanied by a verse signed 'F.

Irdning is a small market town in the Enns valley of Styria, and August Dangl was a local commercial firm — the kind of private business that issued Heller notgeld during Austria's acute small-change shortage of 1920–1921. By that point the postwar inflation had driven metal coins out of circulation entirely, and municipalities, cooperatives, and individual traders alike printed their own emergency fractions to make ordinary retail transactions possible.
The parenthetical "Inh. F. Schneider" indicates the firm had changed hands or was being operated under a new proprietor by the time of issue — not unusual for small Styrian businesses in the difficult early republican years.
