This listing is for the photographed 1920 Municipality of Gries am Brenner in Tirol, Austria 25 Heller Emergency Notgeld. The banknote was used in the Municipality of Gries am Brenner immediately following World War I as inflation raged through the defeated nation. Most other Austrian localities followed suit, resulting in many varied and specific Austrian "notgeld" from this time. This note was issued on October 15th, 1920. It features a map of the municipality with a red heart at the center, printed in a woodcut style. The note was made with thicker cardboard paper rather than the thinner paper typically used, making this a rarer note! Uncirculated (UNC) grade/condition, crisp note! Excellent piece of history with a rarer denomination and composition! Perfect addition to any collection!

Emergency money printed in Germany and Austria immediately after WWI is widely known as "notgeld". The two countries experienced extreme periods of inflation and economic turmoil after their loss in WWI, resulting in municipalities, towns, and state-owned firms to issue their own emergency currencies. The notgeld would be issued with an expiration date, after which they would become invalid. These historically important souvenirs from the interwar periods are an interesting find, representing WWI history and Austria's economic downfall immediately after.

Thanks for stopping by!
