Comments

Haibach is a small village in Upper Austria, and this 75 Heller emergency note is a product of the notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities between 1920 and 1921 — a direct consequence of the coins shortage and monetary chaos following the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Local communes were legally permitted to issue small-denomination paper scrip under conditions set by the Austrian government, and hundreds did exactly that, producing notes that ranged from the purely functional to the elaborately illustrated.

Two signatories authenticated this issue: the Bürgermeister Deibl and his deputy Fischerlehner. The Jaksc catalogue reference 0333a places this firmly within the documented Upper Austrian series.
