Neuhof's 75 Heller notgeld was issued by the local commune during Austria's acute postwar coin shortage, when municipal and corporate bodies across the country stepped in to produce emergency small-denomination scrip that the central monetary authorities simply could not supply in quantity. Franz Himmelbauer's signature as issuing official gives this a documentary precision unusual for village-level notgeld, where authorization signatures were frequently rubber-stamped or entirely omitted.
The Jaksch/Pick reference 0647lla places this within the catalogued Austrian notgeld corpus, though commune-level Heller issues from small Lower Austrian settlements like Neuhof survive in uneven numbers — redemption was patchy, and many pieces were simply kept as curiosities rather than returned.
