| Opmerkingen |
Mitterndorf — now Bad Mitterndorf in the Styrian Salzkammergut — issued this emergency Heller note as part of Austria's broader postwar notgeld wave, when the collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left municipalities scrambling to maintain small-denomination liquidity. By 1920 the Austrian state was still struggling to supply adequate coinage, and spa towns like Mitterndorf, dependent on seasonal visitor trade, had particular incentive to issue their own scrip.
The Jaksc classification places this within the regional Austrian notgeld corpus. Many Styrian spa issues from this period were printed in small runs and collected rather than spent, which paradoxically makes genuinely circulated examples the harder find.
