| Comments |
Randow was a rural district (Landkreis) immediately surrounding the city of Stettin — not part of it administratively, but entirely dependent on it commercially. The Kreiskommunalkasse issuing this note was a district-level fiscal body, not a bank, empowered to produce Notgeld under the inflationary emergency conditions that had by 1921 made small-denomination coinage effectively non-functional in circulation.
M. Bauchwitz was a Stettin printing firm responsible for several local Notgeld issues from the region. The designer credit to Schubert is unusually specific for a piece at this level — most district issues of this type went uncredited.
