Opočno is a small Bohemian town of no particular monetary significance, which is precisely why this note exists. When Austria-Hungary's coin supply collapsed in the opening months of the First World War — silver and copper hoarded almost overnight — hundreds of municipalities and local savings institutions across the empire were forced to issue their own emergency fractional paper. Spořitelna města Opočna was one of them, plugging a gap the central authorities could not fill fast enough.
These Notgeld-style local issues were technically unauthorized but were tolerated by Vienna out of necessity. Most were redeemed and destroyed once official coinage returned, leaving surviving examples genuinely scarce.
