| Comments |
Austrian municipal notgeld of this period exists in staggering quantities, but the Pfarrkirchen im Mühlkreis issues are among the more coherently produced examples from Upper Austria — Jos. Waitl of Linz handled a significant share of regional emergency currency printing in 1920 and 1921, giving notes from this cluster a recognizable production consistency rarely seen in village-level issues.
The 80 Heller denomination is an odd choice. Most notgeld series favored round figures; fractional oddities like this typically reflect an issuing authority trying to plug a precise gap in local change circulation rather than issuing a tidy series for collectors.
