Imst is a market town in Tyrol, and like hundreds of Austrian municipalities, it issued its own emergency paper money during the acute coin shortage that followed the First World War. These Notgeld issues were a local stopgap — authorized by the town, printed in small runs, and intended to circulate only within the immediate community until the national coinage situation stabilized. The Deutsche Buchdruckerei in Innsbruck handled a significant volume of Tyrolean municipal issues during this period, which gives the series a certain regional coherence.
The 10 Heller denomination sits at the low end of practical utility, replaced quickly once federal coinage returned.
