Altheide — now Polanica-Zdrój — was a spa town in the Glatzer Kessel, and its notgeld issues reflect the acute small-change famine that gripped Germany immediately after the First World War. Municipal and commercial authorities across the country were printing their own emergency fractional currency by 1920 because Reichsbank coin simply wasn't reaching everyday commerce in usable quantities.
L. Schirmer was a regional printer based in Glatz, responsible for notgeld from several Lower Silesian municipalities during this period. The printing location and the issuing town were less than 20 kilometers apart — a tight local supply chain typical of how smaller communities handled their emergency currency needs.
