Comments

Warin is a small town in Mecklenburg, and like hundreds of similarly sized municipalities, it issued Notgeld during the postwar inflationary spiral when the Reichsbank simply could not keep small denominations in circulation fast enough to meet demand. The Bärensprungsche Hofbuchdruckerei in Schwerin was a well-established court printer with deep roots in Mecklenburg official printing — a logical choice for the region's municipal emergency issues, and their presswork on these small-denomination notes is generally clean and consistent.

The "1a-9/9" suffix in the DeNG reference indicates this is the final variant within the first type grouping — worth noting for collectors assembling complete Warin sets.
