| Opmerkingen |
Appen is a small village west of Hamburg, and like thousands of German municipalities it issued its own emergency currency — Notgeld — during the early 1920s when coin shortages and runaway inflation made official small denominations functionally useless. The 75 Pfennig denomination is characteristic of this period: an odd value with no peacetime precedent, created purely to plug gaps in everyday commerce.
Konrad Hanf was a Hamburg commercial printer, not a security press, which was entirely typical for local Notgeld commissions. Quality control varied accordingly.
