Sankt Tönis is a small town in the Lower Rhine region, now part of Tönisvorst. This 75 Pfennig piece belongs to the Notgeld wave of 1920, when German municipalities — starved of official small change during the post-WWI economic dislocation — printed their own emergency issues in their thousands. The Reichsbank simply could not keep fractional coinage in circulation fast enough; hoarding and melting saw metal coins vanish almost immediately upon release.
The GrM reference places this within Grabowski-Mehl's exhaustive Notgeld catalog. Series 1167.1a ran to at least five variants, suggesting the municipality issued multiple design rounds — not unusual for towns that found Notgeld a modest revenue earner, since many notes were collected rather than redeemed.
